Shefqet Topi (1934–1998) was an Albanian footballer who played most of his professional career as a goalkeeper for Besa Kavajë football club. He was also capped with the Albania National Football Team in the early 1960s.

A picture of an acrobatic save by Topi in a match against 17 Nëntori in 1961 became one of Albania's most iconic football photos.[http://www.gsh.al/2017/10/30/nje-mace-e-zeze-ne-stadium-kushtuar-fotos-shqiptare-qe-mori-cmim-ne-word-press-photo-ne-moske-61/ Një “Mace e zezë” në stadium, kushtuar fotos shqiptare, që mori çmim në “Word Press Photo” në Moskë ‘61] - Gazeta Shqiptare {{in lang|sq}}
