Peter Schöttel (born March 26, 1967) is a retired Austrian football player.

In his whole career he played exclusively for Rapid Vienna, being Rapid's captain from 1997 until 2001. After he had quit playing himself, he started working as a coach for the Rapid amateurs continuing his association with the club until 2006. On 11 November 2006, after sustaining criticism for negotiating TV punditry contracts while allowing his duties at Rapid to wain, he left the club. In the summer of 2007, he began work as a trainer with Wiener Sportclub with his contract running until the end of June 2008.[1][2]

His squad number, 5, has been retired by Rapid Vienna until the 2011 season as a mark of respect to Schöttel's playing career.

He was capped 63 times for the Austrian national team between 1988 and 2002 and participated in two FIFA World Cups.
