Carlos Emanuel Soares Tavares (born 23 April 1985), known as Carlitos, is a Cape Verdean former professional footballer who played as a right or left-back.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Almada, Setúbal District, Carlitos played the vast majority of his career in the lower levels of Portuguese football. His first Segunda Liga experience occurred with Portimonense S.C. in the 2007–08 season.[2]

In summer 2011, Carlitos moved to the Cypriot First Division, where he spent several years in service of AEL Limassol. On 3 July 2015, he signed a two-year contract with Super League Greece club Iraklis FC.[3]

Carlitos returned to Cyprus and its top flight on 4 January 2016, when he joined AC Omonia.[4] He scored his only goal for the side roughly one year later, when he headed home in a 2–1 away loss against Apollon Limassol FC,[5] and after 52 competitive appearances he was released on 26 May 2017.[6]

Before retiring at age 35, Carlitos represented Real S.C. and Casa Pia A.C. in the Portuguese second tier.[7][8]

Personal life

[edit]

Carlitos' cousin, Nani, was also a footballer. He represented mainly Sporting CP, Manchester United and Portugal.[9]
