Gustavo Antunes Teixeira (born 26 December 1908 – 1 January 1987) was a Portuguese footballer who played as defender.
Over the course of 4 seasons, he amassed Primeira Liga totals of 65 games, spending most of his career at Benfica, winning four major titles.
Born in Vila Real in Trás-os-Montes, Teixeira joined Casa Pia at the age of 10, and was deployed as centre forward; a position he excelled and led him to the national team, debuting on 8 June 1930, in a 1–2 defeat against Belgium in Antwerp.
