Bafode Carvalho developed his football talents at the same football academy as Nani, the Manchester United legend, and played professionally for Portuguese club Estoril in Lisbon, alongside Marco Silva, who is the current Premier League club Fulham manager.

Carvalho International Football Academy is a platform that provides the tools required to think and play like future elite players, we want you to be the best you can be.
His whole life has been around football and that has taken him around the world to countries such as Portugal, Cyprus and China.

CIFA Elite has been born out of our passion for football and our wanting to help those that wish to pursue a career in this wonderful sport, whether this is as a player, a coach, a manager, a referee, a physiotherapist, a dietician or one of the many other important roles in the game of football.

We have carefully thought about how to approach the gulf between grassroots football and professional football, there is a massive gap between the two and it can seem impossible to make that jump. CIFA Elite wants to close that gap and give all of our players the best possible opportunity of pursuing a career in football, whatever that role may be, and believe us, there are many.
CIFA Elite has developed a program which mirrors that of a professional player, with 6 days of training and/or games per week, team communal meals and professional people to help maintain a healthy mind and lifestyle. This is an intense programme that will push you to your limits and get the best out of each individual person.
Football is about family, the team will become lifelong friends, it is this bond that will make playing for CIFA Elite that extra bit special, friends are for life.
