By 2007, he advanced to Alianza Lima’s youth system, prioritizing athletic development over formal higher education. This choice propelled his rapid ascent into senior ranks while embedding values of discipline and family loyalty.

His €500,000 transfer to Sporting CP in May 2011 ignited a European chapter; over four seasons, he amassed 44 Primeira Liga goals, clinching the 2014–15 Taça de Portugal and Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira amid Europa League semifinals.

A controversial contract dispute led to a 2016 loan and permanent €6.6 million move to rivals Benfica, where he contributed to the Primeira Liga, Taça de Portugal, and Supertaça in 2016–17.

Loans to Watford (2018–19) yielded 10 Premier League outings before a €7 million shift to Al-Hilal in 2019, yielding three Saudi Pro League crowns (2020–21, 2021–22, 2022–23), two AFC Champions Leagues (2019, 2021), and a domestic treble.

After a 2023–24 stint at Al-Qadsiah, he joined Corinthians on a free transfer in September 2024, debuting in Série A with assists that bolstered their playoff push.

Internationally, since his 2011 debut, Carrillo has tallied 13 goals in 107 caps, starring in five Copa Américas (third in 2011/2015, runner-up in 2019/2021) and Peru’s 2018 World Cup group stage.
