João Carlos Barros Lopes (born 21 June 2001), known as João Carlos, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a forward for Criciúma.

Career[edit]

Born in Campo Erê, Santa Catarina, João Carlos began his career with Brusque, and had a short spell at Vasco da Gama before joining the youth sides of Criciúma in 2019.[1] He made his first team debut with the latter on 22 January 2020, starting in a 2–1 Campeonato Catarinense home win over Concórdia.[2]

João Carlos scored his first senior goal on 26 January 2020, netting the equalizer in a 3–2 away loss to Juventus Jaraguá.[3] Regularly used during the 2020 Campeonato Catarinense, he lost his space afterwards, and was loaned to Marcílio Dias on 9 March 2022.[4]

João Carlos helped the Marinheiro to win the 2022 Copa Santa Catarina,[5] and returned to Tigre in January 2023.[6] On 30 January 2024, after being mainly a backup option as the club achieved promotion to the Série A, he renewed his contract until 2025.[7]
