Chiquinho scored in his first official game for Benfica, a 2–2 away draw against FC Porto on 24 August 1986. He won the double in his first season,[3][4] going on to take part in 80 competitive matches during his two-year spell and score 21 goals.[1] Additionally, he appeared with the side in the 1987–88 European Cup, playing the full 120 minutes in the final, a penalty shootout loss to PSV Eindhoven.[5]

From ages 35 to 44, Chiquinho Carlos played amateur football with C.D. Mafra and G.D. Igreja Nova.[6][7] He returned to the former immediately after retiring, acting as goalkeeper coach for several years.[8][9][10]
