Claude Teisseire (14 March 1931 – 16 July 2025), nicknamed The Rat, was a French professional rugby league footballer who represented France at the 1954 Rugby League World Cup. Although he could not take part in the 1951 tour of Australia and New Zealand due to a knee injury, he took part in the 1955 tour which concluded with two wins in three test matches. He played as halfback and centre. At club level, he played for AS Carcassonne and Lézignan. For many years, he formed a formidable centre combination with Gilbert Benausse. Later, he became a rugby union coach and referee.
