Early career
Born in Bom Jesus das Selvas, Maranhão,[3] Carlos Vinícius started his football career at the youth ranks of Goiás in 2009, at the age of 14, as a central defender.[4] In 2011, he moved to Santos, but was initially loaned to Desportivo Brasil before returning to the club. Released in 2014, he subsequently joined Palmeiras and finished his formation with the club in the following year[5][6] in strong standing, thanks to Marcos Valadares, who in February 2015, gave Vinícius the opportunity to play centre-forward. One month later, "he was scoring goals and was first choice for the U20s.”[7]
Carlos Vinícius moved to Caldense for the 2016 season, but spent the first year without playing. He made his senior debut on 19 March 2017, starting in a 2–0 away loss against Uberlândia for the Campeonato Mineiro.[8] At the club, he was mainly used as a defensive midfielder.
In May 2017, Carlos Vinícius joined Grêmio Anápolis for the second division of the Campeonato Goiano.[9] For the side, he only contributed with two appearances as a substitute, being utilized as an attacking midfielder, but was moved to the forward position for a friendly and scored two goals in that match; he then impressed some Portuguese scouts in the match, which prompted to a move to the country.[10]
