Diego Daniel Barreto (born July 16, 1981) is a Paraguayan football goalkeeper who currently plays for Cerro Porteño in Paraguay.

He was part of the silver medal-winning Paraguayan football team in the 2004 Olympics. Paraguay booked a quarter-final place with two victories in the qualifying group, finishing second, and then beat South Korea in the quarter-finals and Iraq in the semi-finals, before losing to Argentina in the final.

In 2007 Barreto had a spell with Newell's Old Boys in Argentina, but failed to break into the 1st team, returning to Paraguay in January 2008.
