Vítor Manuel de Oliveira Lopes Pereira (born 26 July 1968) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as midfielder, and the current manager of Turkish club Fenerbahçe.

Career

Early career

Born in Espinho, Pereira only played amateur football, and retired at the age of 28. He started managing on junior level, and his first head coach experience arrived midway through the 2004–05 season, when he was appointed at Sanjoanense in the third division.[1] Subsequently Pereira worked with Espinho in the same level,[2] being fired with ten games left in his second campaign and returning to Porto's juniors for a further season.[3] In 2008 he returned to head coaching again, with Santa Clara in division two, leading the Azores side to the third position in his first year and the fourth in the second, on both occasions narrowly missing out on top flight promotion.[4][5]

Porto

In the summer of 2010, Pereira left Santa Clara to become assistant manager to André Villas-Boas at Porto.[6] On 21 June 2011, following the head coach's departure to Chelsea, he was promoted to first-team manager,[7] winning his first official match and title against Vitória de Guimarães, for the season's Portuguese Supercup. Despite a less than stellar performance both in Europe with Porto being knocked out of the UEFA Champions League in the group stage and in the UEFA Europa League round of 32 and in the Portuguese Cup, Pereira lead the club to the league title in his first season in charge. In March 2013, following the team's elimination from Champions League contention (1–2 on aggregate against Málaga CF), Pereira came under heavy criticism, notably due to his decision of benching James Rodríguez during the first half on both games. The Colombian stated his disappointment in the coach's decision, but said that he respected him and trusted his reasons, adding that the situation was possibly created because of his questionable fitness, even though he claimed to be 100% fit.[8][9][10] In early May, as Porto ranked second in the league, Pereira deemed the Portuguese league as a "dirty competition".[11] Only a few days later, after his team defeated Benfica at home to surpass its opponents – eventually winning the league title, conceding six draws in 30 games –[12] he considered it to be a "highly competitive and prestigious league".[13]

After Porto

In late May 2013, Pereira was interviewed for the vacant job at Premier League club Everton,[14] but eventually signed a two-year deal with Al-Ahli SC (Jeddah) of the Saudi Professional League. On 7 January 2015, he moved clubs and countries again, replacing fired Míchel at the helm of Olympiacos.[15] On 10 June 2015, Olympiacos announced a mutual contract termination with Pereira.[16]

Fenerbahçe

On 11 June, Fenerbahçe announced Pereira as their new manager.[17]
