José Carlos Martins Ferreira (born 2 August 1966), known as José Carlos, is a retired Portuguese footballer who played as a right back.
He started his career with Benfica, where he won four major titles, representing four more teams in the Primeira Liga and amassing totals of 364 games and 15 goals over the course of 15 seasons.
Born in Lisbon, José Carlos started at local Desportivo Domingos Sávio at age 12, finishing his formation at neighbouring S.L. Benfica. In his first two seasons as a professional he did not made a league appearance, as manager John Mortimore favoured António Veloso for the position. He made his debut in a Taça de Portugal match against SL Cartaxo on 18 January 1987, as the season ended in double conquest.
In the summer of 1987, José Carlos signed with Portimonense SC, being an undisputed starter during his tenure in Algarve and subsequently returning to Benfica. In the following four years he appeared in 135 competitive games and scored three goals, winning the 1991 national championship, another domestic cup and the 1989 edition of the Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira. He also took part in the final of the 1989–90 European Cup, lost to A.C. Milan.
