In March 2011, Borges said he will leave Fredrikstad either during or after the 2011 campaign.

On January 1, 2012, Borges signed a three-year contract with the Swedish football team AIK Stockholm after leaving Fredrikstad FK as a free agent. Martin Kayongo-number Mutumba’s 10 shirt, which he now wears, was gifted to him. On April 1, 2012, Borges took the field for AIK against Mjällby AIF. His first goal for the team came in the following game, where the team defeated Kalmar FF. During the first half of the season, he was used as a striker by manager Andreas Alm. However, he dropped down and started playing as a center midfielder after the summer break, eventually taking over as the team’s primary choice in that position. He finished the campaign as the group’s top scorer.
