He also spent two and a half seasons in Spain with Valencia and four in Turkey with Trabzonspor, winning the 2019\u201320 Turkish Cup before returning to Sporting in February 2021, where he again won the domestic league.Internationally, Pereira represented Portugal at Euro 2012 and the 2014 World Cup.

A product of local S.L. Benfica’s youth system, he first appeared with its first team on 17 August 2003 in a 0\u20130 away draw against Boavista FC,[3] and finished his debut season with 25 Primeira Liga appearances, mostly as a midfielder.Pereira was part of the Benfica squad that won the 2005 championship, starting often, until a fallout with coach Ronald Koeman relegated him to the bench and later to the B side. He was sold to Gil Vicente F.C. \u2013 also in the top flight \u2013 in the summer of 2006, after a previous loan to the same club.[4]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Braga[edit]In 2007\u201308, fully reconverted into a right back, Pereira joined S.C. Braga, as another player in the position, Lu\u00eds Filipe, went the other way.[5]An undisputed starter from the beginning, he scored his first goal for the Minho side on 22 February 2009, a 2\u20131 last-minute winner at Associa\u00e7\u00e3o Naval 1\u00ba de Maio.[6] He also collected a total of 17 yellow cards and two red in his first two seasons.Sporting CP[edit]On 22 December 2009, Pereira moved to Sporting CP for a fee of \u20ac3 million;[7] at the time, Braga led the league alongside Benfica with 12 points in advance to his new club, with the Lions eventually finishing fourth.Pereira again featured regularly for Sporting in the 2010\u201311 campaign, both as a defender and a midfielder, as his team ranked in third position. On 30 April 2011, he scored in a 2\u20131 home victory over Portimonense S.C. but was also sent off midway through the second half (after teammate Andr\u00e9 Santos) for repeatedly and severely insulting referee Duarte Gomes.[8]Valencia[edit]  On 24 May 2012, Pereira signed with Valencia CF in Spain for \u20ac3.6 million, penning a 3+1 contract.[9] He made his official debut on 19 August, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1\u20131 away draw against Real Madrid.[10]Pereira was a starter in his first two years with the Che but, after the arrival of manager Nuno Esp\u00edrito Santo for 2014\u201315, was relegated to third-choice right-back.[11][12]Hannover[edit]In the January 2015 transfer window, Pereira signed for Bundesliga club Hannover 96 until the end of the season.[13] He made his league debut on 7 February, playing the second half of a 1\u20132 away loss to Hamburger SV.[14]Return to Sporting[edit]On 13 July 2015, Pereira returned to Sporting on a two-year deal with a \u20ac45 million buyout clause, as a replacement for Southampton-bound C\u00e9dric Soares.[15] He made his debut on 9 August, featuring the full 90 minutes as they beat Benfica 1\u20130 to lift the Superta\u00e7a C\u00e2ndido de Oliveira at the Est\u00e1dio Algarve.[16] Thirteen days later he received his third red card for the club \u2013 all direct \u2013 for conceding a penalty in a 1\u20131 home draw against F.C. Pa\u00e7os de Ferreira.[17]Trabzonspor[edit]In December 2016, Pereira was coveted by Trabzonspor, who were told to pay at least \u20ac1.5 million for his signature.[18] Early in the new year, he cancelled his contract that was due to expire in the summer[19] and joined the S\u00fcper Lig club.[20]Pereira played four matches in the 2019\u201320 Turkish Cup, including the entire 2\u20130 final win over Alanyaspor.[21] On 25 January 2021, he left the \u015eenol G\u00fcne\u015f Stadium as a free agent.[22]Third Sporting stint[edit]On 1 February 2021, shortly before his 37th birthday, Pereira returned to Sporting on a short-term deal; it was agreed that at its conclusion he would remain at the club as a coach.[23]International career[edit]Pereira was first called to the Portugal senior team in October 2010, following the appointment of new coach Paulo Bento. He made his debut in a UEFA Euro 2012 qualifier against Denmark, and also started in the following match \u2013 in the same competition \u2013 in Iceland, with the national side winning both games 3\u20131.[24][25]On 19 May 2014, Pereira was named in the final 23-man squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup.[26] In the first game, against Germany, he committed a penalty on Mario G\u00f6tze that resulted in the first goal scored by Thomas M\u00fcller, in an eventual 0\u20134 loss.[27]Career statistics[edit]Club[edit]International[edit]Appearances and goals by national team and yearNational teamYearAppsGoalsPortugal[30]20103020119020121102013100201470Total400Honours[edit]BenficaBragaSporting CPTrabzonsporReferences[edit]^ a b c d “Jo\u00e3o Pereira” (in Portuguese).
