José Marcelo Ferreira (born 25 July 1973), commonly known as Zé Maria, is a retired Brazilian footballer and current manager of Kenyan Premier League side Gor Mahia.
Known for his pin-point crosses, he could play either as a right back or wide midfielder, and played the vast majority of his professional career, other than in his country, in Italy's Serie A, where he represented three teams, mainly Perugia.
Born in Oeiras, Piauí, Zé Maria started his professional career with Associação Portuguesa de Desportos in 1991, being loaned two times for the duration of his link. In 1996, he signed for Clube de Regatas do Flamengo.
In the summer, Zé Maria moved to Italy after signing with Serie A club Parma A.C., playing regularly for two seasons. Subsequently he stayed in the country, joining Perugia Calcio.
With the Umbrians Zé Maria had a shaky start, being loaned three times back to his country, but eventually established himself in the starting XI, helping his team finish tenth in his third full season whilst contributing with six goals. Via the UEFA Intertoto Cup he and the side reached the third round of the subsequent UEFA Cup, but also suffered domestic relegation.
