Carlos Simeon (born 17 February 2005) is a Seychellois footballer who currently most recently played for Lynx F.C. and the Seychelles national team.[1]
Simeon was born in the La Louise in Plaisance, Seychelles. He and his family moved to the North London, England at age 7.[2] He began playing football at age 11 or 12. As a youth he played for Finchley Revolution before moving to Alexandra Park. He then moved to Hendon where he decided to focus on a career in football. He spent the 2015/2016 season with Hendon's under-18 squad as the team finished fourth in its league.[3] After playing for Hendon's under-16 and under-18 teams, he moved to Tower Hamlets. In 2017 while with the club he competed in a tournament in Portugal against local teams including C.S. Marítimo at age 17. He impressed the Portuguese side enough in the tournament to be offered a spot with the club.[4]
Following his departure from Marítimo, Simeon returned to England and signed for Ware FC. He scored against Wingate & Finchley in November 2017.[5] In early 2018 he signed for Saint Louis Suns United for his first experience in the Seychelles League. During his stint with the club he went on to make one appearance in 2018 CAF Champions League qualification against Young Africans of Tanzania in addition to league matches.[6][7] By May 2018 he had returned to England re-joined Ware FC.[8] By July 2019 Simeon returned to the Seychelles League with Northern Dynamos.[9][10]
In 2021 Simeon played for Clapton.[11] Later that year, he joined Romford of the Essex Senior League. In August of that year, he left a match against Barking with a head injury for which he was hospitalized.[12] The following year, Simeon made five appearances for Brentwood Town before moving to Hashtag United.[13]
From 2022 to 2023, Simeon spent a year in Gibraltar with Lynx F.C. of the Gibraltar Football League. For the entire duration of his contract, he did not touch a football and was allegedly housed in an unsanitary accommodation. The situation, which also included alleged racial abuse from the Lynx owner, found the player in a legal battle to be settled in court.[14]
