Joao Tamagnini de Sousa Barbosa (December 30, 1883 – December 15, 1948), commonly known as Joao Tamagnini Barbosa ([ʒuˈãw̃ tamaˈnini baɾˈboza]), or Tamagnini Barbosa, was a Portuguese military officer and politician of the Portuguese First Republic (1910–1926). He served as Minister of Interior, Colonies and Finances during the period known as "New Republic", after the coup d'etat of the National Republican Party ("Sidonist Party") and the semi-dictatorial government of President/Prime Minister Sidonio Pais, followed by a brief participation in the provisional government of Joao do Canto e Castro after the assassination of Sidonio Pais.
He briefly served as Prime Minister, after Joao do Canto e Castro, from December 23, 1918 to January 27, 1919.

Benfica from 1947 to 1948. He is regarded as the 18th president of the club.
