Benfica

A product of S.L. Benfica's youth system, Pereira debuted for Benfica B on 15 March 2015 in a 3–0 away win at Farense (0–3) in the Segunda Liga.[1] He netted a brace in a victory by the same score at Porto B on 17 May.[2]

On 22 July 2016, Pereira signed a season-long loan deal with English Championship club Nottingham Forest for the 2016–17 season.[3] He scored his first goal for the club in a 3–1 win over Birmingham City on 14 October.[4] Pereira was sent off on 7 November during a 1–1 draw with Queens Park Rangers, which was already his third dismissal of the season following earlier red cards away at Aston Villa on 11 September and at Blackburn Rovers on 18 October. Forest manager Philippe Montanier, was angry that his first caution was collected for dissent and confirmed that the player would be fined by the club.[5]

When Mark Warburton was appointed as Forest manager in March 2017 for the last nine games of the season, Pereira took no further part in the campaign.[6]

Legia Warsaw

On 10 July 2017, Pereira joined Ekstraklasa side Legia Warsaw on a four-contract with the option of a fifth.[7] He played seven games during his time in the Polish capital, and scored twice on 28 November in a 4–2 home win (7–3 aggregate) over Bytovia Bytów in the quarter-finals of the cup.[8]

Pereira returned to the English Football League on 3 January 2018, joining Northampton Town in League One until the end of the season.[9] On 13 February, as a half-time substitute for Sam Foley, he was sent off in a 2–1 home loss to Gillingham.[10]

Pereira arrived at Legia overweight because of three months without playing, and suffered an injury that ruled him out for a further three. He considered quitting football as a result.[11]

Vitória de Setúbal

On 2 August 2018, Pereira returned to Portugal and signed a three-year contract with Primeira Liga side Vitória de Setúbal.[12] He scored four times in his first top-flight season, including a hat-trick on 6 October in a 4–0 home win against Moreirense FC.[13]

The club was dissolved in March 2023.[16]

Henan FC
