Romford
Between February and April 2019, Carvalho was featuring for Romford in the Isthmian League - North Division. His bow arrived in a 4–1 home loss to Bowers & Pitsea on 20 February, which was followed by further showings against Brentwood Town, Basildon United, AFC Sudbury and Grays Athletic; against AFC Sudbury, Carvalho also scored his only goal for *The Boro*, as he came off the bench in place of Joseph Chidyausiku in stoppage time before hitting the back of the net in the final moments.

Bowers & Pitsea
By midway through 2019–20, Carvalho was with newly-promoted Isthmian League - Premier Division team Bowers & Pitsea. He made 3 appearances across the campaign, including in league matches against Cheshunt (on 28 January) and Carshalton Athletic (on 4 February).

Cosmos Nowotaniec
By autumn 2020, having signed with Polish agency Wodzio, Carvalho headed to Poland to sign with regional league outfit Cosmos Nowotaniec.

Karpaty Krosno
In February 2021, Carvalho moved up a division to join Polish IV liga side Karpaty Krosno.

Sintrense
At some point between his two spells with Bowers & Pitsea, Carvalho had a spell back in his homeland with Campeonato de Portugal club Sintrense.

Bowers & Pitsea return
Carvalho rejoined Bowers & Pitsea of the Isthmian League - Premier Division in early 2022. He debuted in a penalty shoot-out win over Chelmsford City in the Essex Senior Cup on 11 January 2022. After a league bow against Carshalton Athletic four days later, he scored his first goal for the club on 8 February during a 2–2 draw away to Folkestone Invicta. He netted two appearances later in an Essex Senior Cup semi-final win over Coggeshall Town, prior to netting Isthmian League goals in March versus Cray Wanderers and Kingstonian before the club lost out in the cup final to Billericay Town on 12 April. He announced his departure from Bowers & Pitsea on 4 June.

### HTU

2022–23
On 14 June 2022, Carvalho joined *The Tags*. He scored twice on his unofficial debut after converting in a 4-2 friendly win over Peacehaven & Telscombe on 2 July. He netted again in his third appearance versus Buckhurst Hill on 21 July 2022, prior to netting another double on 30 July as HTU won 3-1 at the Len Salmon Stadium against Harlow Town. After debuting competitively in a league loss away to Bury Town on 13 August, he scored his first official goal in an FA Cup preliminary round win at Barton Rovers. Carvalho scored again in August against Brentwood Town. Carvalho netted October goals versus Tilbury and Maldon & Tiptree and November strikes against Maldon & Tiptree (cup) and Lowestoft Town, prior to closing 2022 with a 12th HTU goal in a 5-2 victory over Brentwood Town on 26 December.

His first goal of 2023 arrived on 4 March as *The Tags* put eight goals past hosts Tilbury in the Isthmian League - North Division. Carvalho scored in HTU's 6–0 triumph over Great Wakering Rovers on 15 April as they secured promotion as champions; having converted days prior against Witham Town. On 29 June, the forward's exit from the club was publicised - after he had "been given an opportunity to play full-time overseas".

2023–24
After an unsuccessful stint in Luxembourg, Carvalho was resigned by *The Tags* on 14 September 2023. His 2nd bow arrived on 16 September in an FA Cup 2nd qualifying round loss at home to Needham Market, as he replaced fellow new arrival Nigel Aris after 59 minutes. Carvalho netted the 1st goal of his 2nd spell on 13 November at home to Billericay Town. He later claimed a hat-trick of assists in a 26 December triumph at Haringey Borough in the Isthmian League - Premier Division. 4 days later, Carvalho scored in a victory at Folkestone Invicta.

### Post-HTU

Racing
On 3 July 2023, Carvalho headed to Luxembourg to join National Division side Racing. HTU owner Spencer Carmichael-Brown later noted that the move caught the club "by surprise", while manager Jay Devereux left the door open for a potential return to *The Tags* should the move abroad come to an end. His status with Racing was soon put into question after they deleted their announcement post on social media, while he wouldn't feature in any club media or matches at the start of the season.
