Club career

Born in Lisbon, a youth graduate from Benfica, he made his debut on 8 November 1981 in an away win over Belenenses. [1] With the right-back position being occupied by Pietra and Veloso, Pereira had very little opportunities to play, being loaned out to Farense in 1986. [2] [3]

In 1988, he moved to Farense, [4] and helped the team reach the 1990 Taça de Portugal Final, lost to Estrela da Amadora. However, having sustained a serious injury in the upper extremity of femur, while still at Benfica, Pereira ended his career abruptly at age 30 in 1991. [5]

After football, he ended up being associated with Farense, as Chairman of the SAD, and also with the Algarve Football Association and Liga Portuguesa de Futebol Profissional. [6]
