Péter Gulácsi (born 6 May 1990) is a Hungarian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for La Liga club Villarreal.
Gulácsi began his career at Liverpool but did not make a senior appearance, spending loan spells at fellow English clubs Hereford United, Tranmere Rovers, and Hull City. In 2013, he joined Red Bull Salzburg, where he won a domestic double twice, namely the Austrian Bundesliga and Austrian Cup. He later moved to RB Leipzig in 2015, becoming a key figure in their rise to the Bundesliga and UEFA Champions League contention. Appointed captain in 2021, he played a key role in securing the club's first-ever DFB-Pokal title in 2022. After eleven years at the German club, Gulácsi signed for La Liga side Villarreal in 2026.
A full international for Hungary between 2014 and 2025, Gulácsi had represented his country in multiple major tournaments, featuring in the 2016, 2020, and 2024 editions of the UEFA European Championship.

English Premier League club Liverpool signed Gulácsi from MTK Budapest on a one-year loan in 2007, with the player competing in the treble winning reserve team. Liverpool had an option to buy him at the end of this loan deal, which they exercised on the last day of the transfer window, 1 September 2008. Gulácsi was the third person to sign for Liverpool from MTK, with previous signings being compatriots András Simon and Krisztián Németh.
On 29 July and 5 August 2010 respectively, he was the substitute goalkeeper in both of Liverpool's UEFA Europa League ties against Rabotnički, with Liverpool winning 2–0 on both occasions. He also found himself on the bench on 26 August in Liverpool's Europa League tie against Trabzonspor. He was a frequent presence on the subs bench in January 2011, with Brad Jones away at the AFC Asian Cup. With Jones still away at the Asian Cup, Gulácsi was the substitute keeper for their 1–0 Premier League win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Gulácsi retained his spot as back-up to Pepe Reina after Brad Jones returned from international duty, with the latter moving to Derby County on a loan transfer in March 2011.
In the 2009 transfer window in January, Gulácsi was loaned to Hereford United, where he made his league debut. He went on to make 18 league appearances for the club.
On 16 April 2010, Gulácsi joined Tranmere Rovers on an emergency seven-day loan deal and made his debut for the club on 17 April against Exeter City in a 3–1 win for Tranmere. His loan was subsequently extended for an additional seven days and into a third week.
He re-joined Rovers on a one-month emergency loan on 17 September 2010 after Tranmere's two goalkeepers Gunnar Nielsen and Simon Miotto were ruled out with injuries. In October, his loan deal was extended into a second month until 24 November 2010.
