Zé Tó

José Ántónio Ramos Ribeiro (born 11 September 1977), known as Zé Tó, is a Portuguese retired footballer who played mainly as an attacking midfielder.

Club career Born in Lubango, 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 summer of 2000, Zé Tó joined Spain's UD Salamanca, a team that included several compatriots. After a one and a half year on loan to fellow Segunda División side CD Badajoz, he returned and began appearing regularly (after only eight league games from August 2000–December 2001), going on to make 186 competitive appearances for the former.

After an unassuming 2008–09 season – five matches, 141 minutes of action – Zé Tó was released, arranging a deal with another Spanish club, lowly AD Cerro de Reyes, Badajoz's neighbours. However, he quickly grew unsettled, returning to his country after ten years and moving to the regional leagues with Estrela de Vendas Novas.
