Pedro Pereira

Sampdoria

Pereira transferred to Italian club Sampdoria in 2015, and made his professional Serie A debut on 14 September that year, as a 22nd-minute substitute for Mattia Cassani in a 2–0 home win over Bologna. On 4 October, he registered his first assist in a 1–1 draw with Inter Milan, also at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris, for Luis Muriel to open the scoring.

Benfica

First team

On 30 January 2017, Pereira returned to Benfica and signed a contract until 2022. He made his only first-team appearance for the Encarnados on 20 May in the last game for the already crowned champions, playing the full 90 minutes of a 2–2 draw at Boavista FC, and thereby being recorded as a league winner.

Reserve team

Pereira's only other involvement with the club was on 28 October, in the reserve team's 4–0 loss at Gil Vicente FC, on the request of club president Luís Filipe Vieira to motivate the player who was out of first-team coach Rui Vitória's plans.

Genoa (loan)

In January 2018, Pereira was loaned back to Serie A, to Sampdoria's city rivals Genoa on an 18-month deal. The Rossoblu were given the option to purchase him for €4.5 million.

Bristol City (loan)

Pereira was loaned again in August 2019, to Bristol City of England's EFL Championship for a year with the option to buy for €6 million. He scored his first senior goal on 27 October, an 86th-minute equaliser in the Robins' 2–2 home draw with Wigan Athletic, heading in a corner…

As of match played 24 May 2025

Born in Vendas Novas, Évora District, Pereira grew up supporting Sporting CP but switched allegiances to city rivals Benfica upon joining them as a youth.
