Altin Çuko (21 June 1974 – 5 March 2025) was an Albanian footballer who played as a forward. He won the Albanian Superliga Golden Boot, scoring 21 goals during the 1995–96 campaign, 5 with Tomori Berat and 16 with KF Laçi.[1][2]

Not renowned for a prolific scoring record, Çuko scored a remarkable 7 goals in Laçi's final two matches to finish top of the goalscorers chart ahead of Shpëtim Kateshi who scored an even more remarkable 12 in Shkumbini Peqins final 5 matches, 7 of those also in the final two games.

Çuko died on 5 March 2025, at the age of 50.[3]
