Gustavo Leonardo Bou (/boʊ/ BOH, Spanish: ; born 18 February 1990) is an Argentine professional football player who plays as a forward for the New England Revolution in Major League Soccer.

Bou began his professional career in 2008 at the age of 18 with River Plate, under coach Diego Simeone. Throughout his career, he has played in Argentina, Ecuador, Mexico, and the United States.

While playing in Argentina, Bou was on the team that won the 2007-2008 Toreno Clasura and the 2011-2012 Primera B Nacional with River Plate, and the 2014 Torneo Transición and 2018-2019 Primera División with Racing Club de Avellaneda ("Racing"). He was the top goal scorer in the 2015 Copa Libertadores with 8 goals.

Bou is often referred to by his nickname La Pantera ("The Panther"). He sports a tattoo of a panther on his left arm in honor of the moniker. When asked about its meaning in a 2019 interview, Bou compared his playing style to that of a panther, saying, "A panther is always ready to pounce on an opportunity... A panther does not leave. It hides."
