Basile Salomon Pereira de Carvalho (born 31 October 1981) is a Senegalese-born Bissau-Guinean former professional footballer who played as a forward.[1] In 2011 and 2012 he made six FIFA-official appearances, scoring twice for the Guinea-Bissau national team.
Career
[edit]France
[edit]De Carvalho was born in Ziguinchor, Senegal. He joined the French club Louhans-Cuiseaux in 2000,[2] and scored 15 goals in 38 games across two seasons there. Between 2002 and 2004, he played for Sochaux, with a one-year period out on loan to Sedan. De Carvalho then spent five years between 2005 and 2010 with Brest in Ligue 2 and Championnat National. In the beginning of 2010, he signed for Strasbourg in Championnat National, scoring once in 15 matches.
Lokomotiv Plovdiv
[edit]In 2010, De Carvalho joined Lokomotiv Plovdiv as a replacement for Garra Dembélé, who had just been sold to Levski Sofia. In six months there, he scored 7 goals in 13 matches.[3] In January 2011, De Carvalho was close to being transferred to Levski Sofia, but the deal eventually fell through, purportedly due to his chronic shoulder problems.[4] He continued to be a regular starter for Lokomotiv Plovdiv, when physically fit, during the 2011–12 season. On 15 March 2012, De Carvalho was sent off after an altercation with Hristo Yovov in the quarter-final of the Bulgarian Cup, which his team eventually won 2–1 after extra time.[5]
Levski Sofia
[edit]On 12 June 2012, De Carvalho signed with Levski Sofia on a two-year deal.[6] He made his competitive debut on 19 July, in a 1–0 home win over FK Sarajevo in a UEFA Europa League match, and scored his first goal (converting a penalty kick) in the return leg against the same opponent, which was lost by a score of 1–3.
On 28 November, Basile netted his first A Group hat-trick in a 7–1 home win against Etar 1924, scoring four goals. He became the first foreigner to score four goals in a one match for Levski.[7] He finished the 2012–13 A Group season as the top goalscorer in the league, having found the net 19 times in total. His European campaign was somewhat less successful, as he missed a penalty in the first leg of a UEFA Europa League match against Kazakh team Irtysh Pavlodar; his team was eventually eliminated 2–0 on aggregate.
White Star
[edit]On 20 July 2013, De Carvalho relocated to Belgium, signing a contract with second division club White Star Bruxelles. He made his official debut (as a starter) on 4 August 2013, scoring an equalizing goal in the 2–1 home win over Geel.[8]
Inter Luanda
[edit]In July 2014, De Carvalho moved to Angola, signing a contract with top division club Inter Luanda.
Louhans-Cuiseaux
[edit]In January 2015, De Carvalho relocated to France, signing a contract with third division club Louhans-Cuiseaux, where he had started his career in Europe.[9] In May 2019, he announced his retirement from football.[10]
International career
[edit]In September 2010, De Carvalho was called up to the national team of Guinea Bissau for the 2012 African Cup of Nations qualifiers. His debut came on 26 March 2011, in a 0–1 home loss against Uganda in a 2012 African Nations Cup qualifier.[11] On 10 August 2011, he opened his account for the national side, scoring twice in the 4–1 win against Equatorial Guinea in a friendly match.[12] These two goals are not considered official due to the nature of the friendly game and are not listed below.[citation needed] De Carvalho participated in Guinea-Bissau's qualifying campaign for the 2014 World Cup.[13]
Personal life
[edit]He holds French citizenship.[14]
