Charles spent most of his career in Belgium, after Cercle Brugge had discovered him. Even though he would only stay for one season and play twice for the green and black side, he settled in the Bruges area. At the end of his active playing career, Charles became youth coach for local team SV Oostkamp and in a later stage Cercle Brugge and VV-Emelgem-Kachtem.
After a spell in France with USF Le Puy, Charles returned to Belgium, ending his career with two Walloon teams: UR Namur and Wallonia Walhain.
