José Vítor Moreira Semedo (born 11 January 1985) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder for English club Sheffield Wednesday.

He spent most of his professional career in England, starting out at Charlton Athletic in 2007.

A product of Sporting Clube de Portugal's youth system, Semedo was born in Setúbal and made his professional debuts with modest Casa Pia AC, in the Lisbon area. In the 2005–06 season he served another loan stint, now with C.D. Feirense in the second division.

For the 2006–07 campaign Semedo was loaned again, moving to Serie A's Cagliari Calcio. He made his club debut in the Coppa Italia, but would only appear three times in the league, the first as a late substitute in a 1–3 away loss against A.C. Milan on 21 April 2007; he was sent off in his last match, a 1–2 defeat at Ascoli Calcio 1898, with the Sardinians barely avoiding relegation.

In 2007, Semedo signed a four-year deal with Charlton Athletic on a free transfer. Although touted as a central defender when he signed, he played mainly as a defensive midfielder for the Football League Championship club, and scored his first goal for the side in a 4–0 win over Tranmere Rovers on 29 August 2009, with Charlton now in League One.
