Born and raised in Población José María Caro (located in Chile's capital city Santiago), Carrasco joined the youth ranks of the professional team Audax Italiano when he was 14 in 2005.[1]

Carrasco made his professional debut, aged 18, during a Primera División game: a 2–2 draw with Huachipato on 18 September 2009 at Estadio Municipal de Concepción,[2] where he was replaced by Fernando Gutiérrez.[3] The same year, he played three games as starter for the Torneo Clausura: in the 2–2 draw with Huachipato,[2] a 4–2 loss with Deportes La Serena[2] and a 1–1 draw with O'Higgins.[2]

His first goals for the club came on April 24, 2010, in a 3–1 victory over Universidad de Concepción at Estadio Bicentenario de La Florida for Primera División's thirteenth matchday, where he netted a twice.[4] The same game, he was elected the man of the match.[4]

In 2012, he was sent on loan to Croatia's top-level Dinamo Zagreb.
