Playing career

Born in Valinhos, São Paulo, Carpini made his senior debut with local side Guarani Sumareense [pt] in the 2004 Campeonato Paulista Segunda Divisão. In 2006, after playing in the year's Campeonato Capixaba for Estrela do Norte, he signed for Ponte Preta in the Série A.

Carpini made his top tier debut on 31 May 2006, starting in a 1–0 away win over Juventude. On 10 April 2007, he moved to fellow first division side Atlético Mineiro.[1]

In July 2008, after being rarely used at Galo, Carpini agreed to a contract with Série B team América de Natal. On 23 December of that year, he was announced at Bahia.[2]

Carpini began the 2011 season at CRAC, but returned to his home state with Inter de Bebedouro for the year's Copa Paulista. He subsequently rejoined CRAC before finishing the 2012 campaign at São José-SP.[3]

In November 2012, Carpini was included in Monte Azul's squad for the upcoming season.[4] After playing the 2013 Copa FGF with Novo Hamburgo, he represented Guarani-MG in the 2014 Campeonato Mineiro.

On 17 April 2014, Carpini joined Guarani in the Série C.[5] He left the club in 2016 and joined Penapolense.[6]

On 24 April 2017, Carpini was announced at Caldense for the Série D.[7] He asked to leave the club on 6 June, after alleging personal reasons,[8] and retired shortly after.

Eight days after leaving AFE, Carpini was appointed Água Santa head coach for the Copa Paulista.[20] He led the club to the finals of the 2023 Campeonato Paulista, losing to Palmeiras; despite finishing second, he was named the tournament's best head coach.[21]

Juventude

Carpini departed Água Santa on 13 May 2023 to take over Juventude in division two.[22] With Ju in the penultimate position in his arrival, he renewed his contract with the club on 1 September,[23] and led them to promotion in the 2023 Série B.[24]
