José Carlos da Silva José (born 22 September 1941), known as José Carlos, is a Portuguese retired footballer who played mostly as a central defender.

Club career

Born in Vila Franca de Xira, Lisbon District, José Carlos joined Sporting Clube de Portugal in 1962, from G.D. Fabril in Barreiro. Over the course of 12 seasons, all spent in the top division (14 counting those with his previous team), he appeared in more than 300 official games, winning three leagues and three cups and adding the 1964 edition of the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.[1]

José Carlos retired in 1975 at the age of 34, after a brief spell in the second level with S.C. Braga.

International career

José Carlos played 36 times for Portugal, three as a CUF player and 33 whilst at the service of Sporting. His debut came on 19 March 1961 against Luxembourg for the 1962 FIFA World Cup qualifiers (6–0 home win), and his last appearance came nearly ten years later, against Denmark for the UEFA Euro 1972 qualifying stages (5–0 success).[2][3]

José Carlos represented the country at the 1966 World Cup in England: he appeared twice in the tournament, against England in the semifinals and the Soviet Union in the third-place match, the latter ending in a 2–1 triumph.[4]
