Casper Ankergren (born 9 November 1979) is a Danish professional football goalkeeper, currently playing for Brøndby IF in the Danish Superliga.
Ankergren started his career with Køge BK in the Danish 1st Division. In January 2001, he moved to Danish Superliga club Brøndby IF. Ankergren made his breakthrough with Brøndby in the last half of the 2002-03 Danish Superliga season, following the retirement of club legend Mogens Krogh in December 2002. For the 2003-04 season, however, Brøndby bought meritted goalkeeper Karim Zaza as their first choice keeper and Ankergren would spend the season as a substitute. At the start of the 2004-05 season, Zaza was injured and Ankergren then went on to play the rest of the season, even after Zaza's recovery. Ankergren finished the season setting a league record with 18 clean sheets.
