In 2013, he left for Rosenborg to enter the position of a player developer at the Rosenborg academy.[4] In January 2017 he became the assistant manager of Kåre Ingebrigtsen at Rosenborg alongside Erik Hoftun.[5]
In January 2017, Pereira was chosen as one of two to spend a week with José Mourinho at Manchester United.[6][7] This came to be through the High Performance Football Coaching course at the University of Lisbon where Mourinho would choose the two that impressed the most.
