Custódio Miguel Dias de Castro (born May 25, 1983 in Guimarães), commonly known just by Custódio, is a Portuguese footballer playing for Russian club FC Dynamo Moscow as a defensive midfielder.

From 2001-2007, Custódio played for Sporting Clube de Portugal. In the 2006-07 season, coach Paulo Bento named him captain of the team in recognition of his history at Sporting and consistent displays in the previous seasons. Incidentally, in that season, he also fell out of favor in the club's rotation, which led to his release from the club in July 2007, subsequently signing with Russian Premier League side of FC Dynamo Moscow.

An under-21 international, Custódio appeared in two UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship editions, in 2004 and 2006.
