Altair Gomes de Figueiredo (born January 21, 1938 in Niterói, Brazil) was a football defender and a World Champion for Brazil in the 1962 World Cup.
He has spent his entire career at one club (Fluminense), for which he played 551 games, scoring twice. He was called “magro” (slim) because he was skinny and despite his modest physical appearance, was a tough tackler and tremendous marker. His duels with Garrincha were legendary.
He retired from playing in 1971 aged 33.
