Clement Jean Robert Chantome (born 11 September 1987) is a French professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Championnat National 2 club C'Chartres.
A graduate of the Paris Saint-Germain Academy, Chantome made a name for himself as a technically gifted, ball-winning box-to-box midfielder. Despite being used sparingly at Paris Saint-Germain, he was a fan favourite because of his home-grown status, love for the Parisian shirt, and subtle hard work. He played for the club's first team from 2006 to 2015, and was loaned out to Toulouse in the 2013–14 season. After leaving Paris, Chantome went on to play for Bordeaux. He signed for Rennes in 2016, and was loaned to Lens a year later. In 2018, he transferred to Red Star, followed by Poissy in 2020 and C'Chartres in 2022.
Chantome was a France youth international; he played for the under-21s from 2006 to 2008. In 2012, he made an appearance for the France national team in a friendly against Japan.
