Luciano Acosta (born 31 May 1994), nicknamed La joya (in English "The Jewel"), is an Argentine football attacking midfielder. He currently plays for D.C. United.

Acosta made his professional debut for Boca Juniors on 9 February 2014, when Boca tied against Newell's Old Boys, replacing Juan Manuel Martínez for the 2014 Final. Acosta has appeared in the Xeneizes as a starter throughout the 2014 Torneo Final.

In 2016, Acosta went on a season-long loan to D.C. United of Major League Soccer. Acosta made his competitive debut on in a CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal match against Queretaro. He scored his first goal for D.C. United in the 86th minute of a league game against the New England Revolution on April 23.

After the 2016 season, D.C. United opted to purchase Acosta outright for a club record fee.
