Luís Filipe Vieira Carvalho (born 6 January 1967 in São João da Madeira), aka Litos, is a retired Portuguese footballer who played as a midfielder, and a current coach.
As Sporting Clube de Portugal was coached by Welsh John Toshack, Litos made his first-team debuts at the age of 17; his best individual season would be precisely his first - 28 matches, six goals, even reaching the national team - and he remained an important member of the main squad in the following years.
Litos left the Lions in 1992, and represented, without much success, at least in the top division, Boavista FC, Sporting de Braga, G.D. Estoril Praia, Union Sportive Lusitanos Saint-Maur (third level, in France) and Atlético Clube de Portugal. He retired from the game in 1999.
Five years later, Litos began a coaching career, starting with former side Estoril, not being able to prevent relegation from the top flight. In 2009–10, he led Portimonense S.C. back to the first division, after a two-decade absence.
Litos was fired by Portimonense in late December 2010, as the Algarve side ranked second from the bottom in the league. Shortly after, he signed for Leixões SC, in the second division.
