Jussiê

Jussiê Ferreira Vieira (born 19 September 1983), commonly known as Jussiê, is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a second striker.

Early career
Born in Nova Venécia, Espírito Santo, Jussiê began his career at Cruzeiro in 2001. In mid-2003, he was loaned to J1 League side Kashiwa Reysol, where he scored a total of 5 goals in 17 matches in the league.

Lens
On 30 January 2005, Jussiê joined Lens from Cruzeiro for a reported fee of €3.5 million, on a five-year contract.

Bordeaux
In January 2007, Jussiê joined Bordeaux on loan. On 3 February 2007, he played his first Ligue 1 match for Bordeaux against Nice. He went on to make 16 appearances in the league scoring 2 goals as Bordeaux finished in sixth place. In his club's Coupe de la Ligue final against Lyon he came on as a substitute contributing to a 1–0 win which not only earned Bordeaux the cup but also UEFA Cup qualification.

On 4 June 2007, Jussiê joined Bordeaux permanently on a four-year contract, for an undisclosed fee.

He received French nationality in January 2011.

Jussiê left Bordeaux in summer 2016 after eight years with the club as his contract was not renewed. He expressed disappointment about finding out about his departure via the club website, stating "Given the way I go, inevitably, there is bitterness. I did not understand. I have not had a single call from the president nor anyone. I know that economically, it is a bit complicated for the club. But my story with the Girondins is not a money story".

In February 2017, he announced his retirement from professional football. It had been reported he would play for French amateur club Stade Bordelais but he was denied a playing license by the French Football Federation.
