José Carlos Santos da Silva (born 19 March 1975), known as Zé Carlos, is a Brazilian retired footballer who played as a forward.
His own included, he played professionally in six countries.
Football career
[edit]Born in Ipirá, Bahia, Zé Carlos received the nickname Zé do Gol (Zé of the Goal) while playing at Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas. There, he was champion of the 1997 Campeonato Carioca and the Torneio Rio – São Paulo in the following year. In January 2002 he left for Turkish club Malatyaspor[1] and, the next year, moved back to Brazil, for Clube de Regatas do Flamengo also in Rio de Janeiro.
In January 2004, Zé Carlos joined South Korea's Pohang Steelers.[1] The following year in the same month he moved again, penning a one-year deal with Esporte Clube Juventude.
Zé Carlos spent the next one-and-a-half seasons in Portugal, with C.S. Marítimo[1] and S.C. Braga,[2] helping the Minho side finish fourth in 2006–07 and qualify for the UEFA Cup. He was also an essential attacking unit in their semi-final run in the Taça de Portugal, notably scoring a hat-trick in a 5–2 home win against Portimonense SC.[3][4]
On 12 July 2007, Zé Carlos signed a contract with APOEL FC in Cyprus.[5] He experienced some trouble with injuries during his stay, but helped his team win the domestic cup.
In 2011, 34-year-old Zé Carlos helped Club Bolívar conquer the Bolivian League, scoring ten goals. He subsequently returned to his country, playing exclusively in amateur football.
