Carlos Emanuel Soares Tavares (born 23 April 1985), commonly known as Carlitos, is a Cape Verdean professional footballer who plays as a right or left back.
Born in Almada, Portugal, Carlitos played the vast majority of his career in the lower levels of Portuguese football. His only Segunda Liga experience occurred with Portimonense S.C. in the 2007–08 season (only six starts, club finished in tenth position).
In the 2011 summer, Carlitos moved to the Cypriot First Division, where he spent several years in representation of AEL Limassol. On 3 July 2015, he signed a two-year contract with Superleague Greece club Iraklis Thessaloniki FC.
On 4 January 2016, Carlitos returned to Cyprus and its top level when he joined AC Omonia. He scored his first and only for the team roughly one year later, when he headed home in a 1–2 away loss against Apollon Limassol, and after 51 competitive appearances he was released on 26 May 2017.
Carlitos' cousin, Nani, was also a footballer. He represented mainly Sporting Clube de Portugal, Manchester United and Portugal.
