Félix Loustau (Spanish pronunciation: [lusˈto]) (25 December 1922 – 5 January 2003) was an Argentine professional footballer who was a key player on the River Plate squad known as La Máquina. He usually played as an outside left and is widely regarded as one of the best wingers who played in the Argentine Primera Division and in the Argentina national team.

The peak of his career was during the Second World War, so his international career was very limited. Nevertheless, he played 28 times for Argentina scoring ten goals and he won the Copa América three times in 1945, 1946 and 1947.
