Witold Henryk Szyguła (22 November 1940 – 4 September 2003) was a Polish footballer and manager who played as a goalkeeper.

He signed for Scottish club Hamilton Academical in June 1971, alongside fellow Polish internationals Alfred Olek and Roman Strzałkowski.[3] They were "the first players from behind the Iron Curtain […] to play in Britain."[4] The deal was orchestrated by Hamilton's chairman Jan Stepek, who was himself Polish, in return for electronic goods being sent to Poland.[5] Szyguła also played in Poland for Zagłębie.[6]
