Guillermo Stábile (17 January 1905 – 26 December 1966) was an Argentine professional football player and manager who played as a centre forward.

At club level, Stábile won two national championships with Huracán and played in Italy and France.

As manager, he led Argentina to victory at six South American Championships and Racing Club to three league titles.

Stábile won many competitions with Huracán, most notably the championships of 1925 and 1928 and the regional trophy Copa Dr. Carlos Ibarguren in 1925.

[1] His debut came in the following game against Mexico, because the first choice striker Roberto Cherro couldn't play due to an anxiety attack.

The South Americans breezed through, with a 6–1 victory; Stábile added two more goals to his account and securing Argentina a place in the finals.

Despite losing the final, Stábile made history, becoming the top scorer in the first ever FIFA World Cup, with his tally of 8 goals in 4 games.

Stábile had received his first taste of managing, way back in the 1931–32 season at Genoa, long before he retired from playing.

After the first round exit at the 1958 World Cup, where Argentina lost the last of its three matches with 1–6 to Czechoslovakia, his time with the national side came to a halt.
