Discovered by Alianza Lima in Peru, the midfielder moved to Europe, where he played for Sporting and Benfica in Portugal, as well as Watford in England. He later transferred to Middle Eastern football, playing for Al-Hilal and Al-Qadisiyah.

Throughout his career, Carrillo won two titles with Sporting, four with Benfica, nine with Al-Hilal, one with Al-Qadisiyah, and now two with Corinthians.

At 34 years old, André Carrillo has a contract with the alvinegro club until 2026. Since joining Corinthians in 2024, the player has taken the field 71 times, scored three goals, and provided five assists.

With the season concluded after the national victory, the Corinthians squad begins their vacation period. The team is scheduled to return on January 3, 2026, while their debut in the Campeonato Paulista is set for January 11, against Ponte Preta, at the Neo Química Arena, at 4 PM (Brasília time).
