Mohd Syamsuri Mustafa (born 6 February 1981) is a Malaysian footballer currently playing as a goalkeeper for PBDKT T-Team FC. He is a member of the Malaysian national football team.

Before moved to Pahang FA, he was the primary goalkeeper for Terengganu FA. His biggest achievement with Terengganu was being a runner up in the 2004 Malaysia FA Cup. Terengganu lost 3-0 after conceding three goals in extra time against Perak FA. He was also the primary national goalkeeper during his day with Terengganu, beating many other goalkeepers like Mohd Hamsani Ahmad, Azmin Azram Abdul Aziz and Azizon Abdul Kadir.

He was part of the Malaysian squad that faced Brazil and Manchester United F.C. in 2002. He also represented Malaysia in the 2001 and 2003 SEA Games, the 2002 Tiger Cup, the 2004 Tiger Cup, and the 2007 ASEAN Football Championship. During 2003 SEA Games in Vietnam, Syamsuri became the first Malaysian goalkeeper to score a goal in an international match. He scored the long range goal with a drop kick from his own penalty area in Malaysia's 3-4 defeat against the host country, Vietnam.

During 2005/06 season Syamsuri was awarded the Favourite Goalkeeper and Favourite Player of the season by the fans in Anugerah Bolasepak Malaysia Coca-Cola FAM 2005-2006.^[1]

In 2007, Syamsuri did not take part in Malaysia's disastrous 2007 AFC Asian Cup performance. This is due to a ban from participating any football match because of his discipline problems. He has not been called up for the national squad since his last appearance against Sri Lanka on 26 March 2007.

For 2009 season, Syamsuri returned to Terengganu but this time with PBDKT T-Team FC.^[2] In his return with the national team, he play 68 minutes and conceded three goals against UAE.
