Jose Manuel Quitongo (born November 18, 1974 in Luanda, Angola) is an Angolan professional football winger who plays for Stenhousemuir.

He began his career in Portugal with Benfica, playing 20 games before moving to Darlington. He made just one appearance for Darlington before moving to Hamilton Academical in November 1995.

In October 1997 Quitongo moved to Hearts, playing 30 league games (mostly as substitute) before returning to Hamilton in January 2000. He moved to St. Mirren in July 2000, making 57 league appearances before signing for Kilmarnock in August 2002. He made just nine appearances before returing to Hamilton again in October 2003 where he remained until the summer of 2004.

In January 2005, he signed for Alloa Athletic, moving to Partick Thistle in March 2006. However, he made just one appearance, as a substitute, for Partick before being released at the end of the season. In August 2006 he signed for a month with Dumbarton after playing in two games as a trialist. He played 3 times, but left at the end of the month.

Since November 2007 to the end of the season he played for Pro Lissone in the Eccellenza (the sixth level in Italy).

In August 2007, Quitongo was rumoured to be training with Livingston, in order to win a deal with the first division club. He signed for Stenhousemuir in November.
