Roger de Carvalho (born 10 December 1986), known as Roger Carvalho, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a central defender for Água Santa.

Biography[edit]

Carvalho was signed by Iraty in January 2007. He signed a two-year contract with Iraty in November 2006 and was loaned to Rio Branco for 2007 Paraná state football championship. He then transferred to Tombense, a proxy club for the investees where he was immediately loaned to Portuguese Second Division club Olivais e Moscavide.[1] In January 2009, he returned to Brazil for Guarani (MG). The team finished as the least in 2009 Minas Gerais state championship.

Figueirense[edit]

Carvalho came to Figueirense in May 2009, and helped the team get promoted to the first division the following year, as 2010 runner-up. Roger played 27 games in 2011 first division, starting 20 times. With Tombense, he also signed a new three-year contract effective on 1 January 2010. He was loaned to Figueirense in January 2010, May 2010, and again in January 2011.

Genoa[edit]

On 31 January 2012, Carvalho was loaned to Italian Serie A club Genoa C.F.C. He took the number #3 shirt from departed Dario Dainelli. Roger is a dual Brazil-European Union citizen,[2] thus he was not restricted by the non-EU policy of the FIGC. He made his debut on 15 February 2012 after Kakha Kaladze was suspended.

São Paulo[edit]

On 21 August 2013, Carvalho was loaned to São Paulo FC until the 2014 Campeonato Paulista Finals. Tricolor paid a contract fee of €3 million for the defender.[3] However, his opportunities to play at São Paulo were diminished by two factors: the possible return of Rafael Toloi (on loan to AS Roma), and the awaited arrival of Breno Borges (signed pending adjudication of a court sentence in Germany).[4]

Vitória[edit]

Roger Carvalho joined Vitória on 29 July 2014.[5] The defender stayed at the club until the end of the year.

Botafogo[edit]

On 3 January 2015, Roger Carvalho was signed by Botafogo.[6]
