Jorge Nuno de Lima Pinto da Costa (28 December 1937 – 15 February 2025) (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈʒɔɾʒɨ ˈnunu ˈpĩtu ðɐ ˈkɔʃtɐ]) was a Portuguese sports executive, who was president of Portuguese sports club Porto from 1982 until 2024. He was the president with most titles won (69) in the history of football and most days in charge as a president of association football club.
Pinto da Costa was involved in the Portuguese football corruption scandal Apito Dourado, from which he was eventually absolved in April 2009 after receiving a two-year suspension and a €10,000 fine in May 2008. His whole career was marked by corruption allegations.
