Petre "Petea" Vâlcov (born 1910 in Bolgrad, Russian Empire (now in Ukraine) - deceased 16 November 1943 in Kalmyk Steppe) was a Romanian football player. Forming a well-known attacking triple for Venus Bucureşti alongside his two brothers, Colea and Volodea, he was one of the most efficient goal-scorers in the Romanian First League.

He played for only two clubs : Mihai Viteazu Chişinău and Venus Bucureşti. Despite his goalscoring ability, he was never the top-goalscorer of the Divizia A.
Petea Vâlcov made his debut for the national side in a June 1933 Balkan Cup match against Bulgaria. He had a great spell and scored two goals as Romania won 7-0.[1] Vâlcov played a total of seven games for the Tricolours and netted four goals.
