Club career edit
Born in Póvoa de Varzim, Lima Pereira's final youth club was FC Porto, and he was an unused substitute for the reserves in Segunda Liga for two matches in the middle of the 2012–13 season.[2][3] He then joined another second team, Vitória S.C. B in the third division,[4] winning promotion in his first year.[5]
Lima Pereira made his division two debut on 9 August 2014, scoring the first goal in a 3–0 home win against C.D. Feirense.[6] He added a further two during the campaign,[7][8] in a ninth-place finish.[9]
For 2016–17, Lima Pereira signed a one-year contract with Varzim S.C. in the same league. His uncle António had previously played for his hometown side.[10][11]
Lima Pereira left his native Norte region for the first time on 23 June 2017, agreeing to a three-year deal at second-tier C.D. Cova da Piedade.[12] He went further afield in January 2019, when he joined Eastern Sports Club of the Hong Kong Premier League on a six-month loan.[13]
After leaving Cova da Piedade in 2020, Lima Pereira played at a lower level for AD Fafe, F.C. Felgueiras 1932[14] and S.C. Espinho.[15]
Personal life edit
Lima Pereira's uncle, António, also played for Varzim and was a mainstay at Porto in the 1980s.[12]
