Club career
Pereira was born in the village of Perosinho in Vila Nova de Gaia, Porto District. He played youth football for four clubs, including FC Porto from ages 11–17; he finished his development at Vitória de Guimarães.[2]
On 16 September 2015, Pereira made his professional debut with Vitória's reserves in the LigaPro, featuring the full 90 minutes in a 0–0 home draw against Atlético Clube de Portugal.[3] In the 2017 January transfer window he signed with fellow league team Académico de Viseu FC,[4] being voted the league's best right-back at the end of the 2017–18 season alongside FC Porto B's Diogo Dalot.[5]
Subsequently, Pereira took his game to the Cypriot First Division, first with Doxa Katokopias FC then AC Omonia.[6] On 31 January 2020, the latter club loaned him to Slovak Super Liga's FC Spartak Trnava on a six-month loan deal with an option to buy, being signed at the request of manager Ricardo Chéu and reuniting with his former Doxa teammate Bogdan Mitrea.[7]
