Nouri Khodayari (Arabic: نوري خضيري‎, Persian: نوری خداياری) is a retired Iraq-Iranian football player. He was born in Baghdad and played for Al-Omma and Aliyat Al-Shurta (only one match scoring four goals). He was known in Iraq as Nouri Qaraman. He was a Faili Kurd and because he did not possess a certificate of nationality he was unable to sign for Aliyat Al-Shurta (one of the best teams in Iraq in the 60s and 70s), which was why he left Iraq as he was unable to sign for any club.
