Club career

Carmona started his career as a centre midfielder in Coquimbo Unido.[1] Two years later he moved to O'Higgins.[2]

On June 1, 2008, Carmona was bought by Serie A side Reggina.[2] He made his debut abroad on 14 September, starting and playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–1 draw against Torino.[citation needed] Carmona appeared in 32 matches during the campaign, which ended in relegation.[2]

In the 2010 summer Carmona moved to Atalanta, also relegated to Serie B.[2] He had 32 appearances as La Dea returned to the top level.[2]

Carmona signed with Major League Soccer side Atlanta United on 6 February 2017.[1] On 7 March 2017 he made his debut, receiving a red card in the 88th minute in a 1–2 loss to the New York Red Bulls.[3] In 7 May 2017 he scored his first goal for the team in the 39th minute in a 1–3 loss to New York City FC.[4]

Youth

Carmona was Chile's youngest player at the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship in the Netherlands where he showed some glimpse of talent in Chile's opening game, a 7–0 win against Honduras.[citation needed] Two years later, he captained Chile to the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup where he played in a 3–0 win against Canada, a 3–0 win against Congo, a 4–0 win against Nigeria and a 1–0 win against Austria; Chile eventually were bronze medalists at the end of tournament.[citation needed]

His international fortunes continued as Chile's coach Marcelo Bielsa called him up for the 2008 Toulon Tournament, a Under-23 football event, where Carmona won a silver medal with his side.[citation needed]
