Career
[edit]Early career
[edit]Pereira was born in Funchal in Madeira, and was a youth player at local C.S. Marítimo.[1] He began his coaching career as an assistant to Bruno Pereira at S.C. Braga B and C.D. Trofense. He was then the manager at G.D. Gafanha before leaving in January 2019 for C.F. União on his native island, competing in the Campeonato de Portugal.[2] His one season there was abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] In July 2020, he left for A.R.C. Oleiros.[4]
Oliveirense
[edit]In July 2021, Pereira was appointed at U.D. Oliveirense in Liga 3.[5] He took the team to second place in the first half of the season, followed by first place in the promotion league, but lost the title on penalties to S.C.U. Torreense; in May 2022 he extended his contract for two more years.[6]
On 6 August 2022, Pereira won his first game at a professional level in Liga Portugal 2, 3–1 at home to C.D. Mafra.[7] The season ended with the team from Oliveira de Azeméis in 10th place.[8]
Marítimo
[edit]Pereira returned to Marítimo as manager of 7 December 2023, succeeding Tulipa at the second-tier club.[1] On his debut three days later, he won 4–0 at home to Vilaverdense FC.[9] He was confirmed by the board for another season, after finishing 2023–24 by being beaten to the final playoff place by AVS Futebol SAD following a 2–2 draw with Académico de Viseu FC.[10]
On 4 September 2024, three games into the new season, Pereira and his staff left the Rubro-Verde club.[11]
Vizela
[edit]On 17 December 2024, Pereira was hired at F.C. Vizela also in the second tier. He succeeded Rubén de la Barrera at the 14th-placed club.[12]
