Gustavo Bou started playing in the youth ranks of Club Comunicaciones Concordia. At the age of 14 he tried out for River Plate, and was admitted into the reserve team. While playing in the River Plate reserve team, head coach Diego Simeone offered him a contract to join the professional team. On March 23, 2008 Gustavo made his debut for River Plate in the match against Vélez Sarsfield. He entered in the 43rd minute of the game, replacing Mauro Rosales.
When Bou was in River he was summoned to the 2007 U-17 World Cup in Korea, but was eventually left out due to a partial tear of a lateral ligament and a meniscus.
Bou scored his first goal in a match against Newell's Old Boys on the 12th week of the Torneo Apertura 2008 (Argentina), which ended in a 1-1 draw. He scored again against San Martín de Porres, in the 2009 Copa Libertadores; the match ended in a 3-0 victory. He then scored against Chacarita Juniors in a Clausura 2010 in 3-2 River Plate victory.
Bou played very few minutes during the 2010/2011 season, in which River Plate historically relegated to the second division. During the following season, in the second division, Bou played 2 games as a substitute coming off the bench. In the summer he scored his fourth goal in River Plate, against Boca Juniors in a friendly match.
