Zé Tó
José Ántónio Ramos Ribeiro (born 11 September 1977), commonly known as Zé Tó, is a Portuguese retired footballer who played mainly as an attacking midfielder.
Football career
Born in Luanda, Angola, Zé Tó began his professional career at Vitória de Setúbal, but could never break into the main squad. After a stint in the lower leagues, he first made an impact in the Primeira Liga with S.C. Farense.
In the 2000 summer Zé Tó joined Spain's UD Salamanca, a team that also included three compatriots. After a one-and-a-half year loaned to fellow second level side CD Badajoz, he returned and began appearing regularly (after only eight league games from August 2000–December 2001), going on to amass 186 official appearances for the club.
After an unassuming 2008–09 season – five matches, 140 minutes of action – Zé Tó was released, arranging a deal with another Spanish side, lowly AD Cerro de Reyes, former side Badajoz's neighbours. However, he quickly grew unsettled, returning to his country after nearly ten years and moving to the regional leagues with Estrela de Vendas Novas.
