A product of FC Barcelona's famed youth system, La Masia, Carreras made his first team debut on 4 April 1993, appearing in a 3–0 home success against CD Logroñés, in what would be his only first division match of the season.
After two loans with interesting playing time, at Real Oviedo and Racing de Santander, he returned to Barça; although he appeared regularly in 1995–96's league, the club came out empty in silverware.
Carreras then lived his most steady period at RCD Mallorca, although never an undisputed starter. He achieved promotion in his first season, then proceeded to amass roughly over 100 overall appearances.
Subsequently, Carreras had similar experiences with both Atlético Madrid and Deportivo Alavés: after featuring regularly in the clubs' second level promotions, he saw very little time in the follow-up first division campaigns. In between, he played with Real Murcia, for one season.
Carreras' career would end on a sour note: when playing for the Basque side, he clashed with eccentric owner/chairman/manager Dmitry Pietrman; teammate Roberto Bonano, who stepped up in his defense, was also suspended.[1]
Both retired shortly afterwards and, as Alavés changed hands, Carreras returned to the club to have his first coaching experience in 2009, with the B side, then in the fourth division. In his first season at the helm of CE Sabadell FC, he led the team to promotion to the second level.
