About the player
In December 2017, at 18, he signed his first professional contract with the club, and the following year he was handed his debut under coach Claudio Biaggio, in a match against Lanús.
The move that followed took him furthest from home: in January 2020, Benfica took him on loan for six months, with a purchase option worth 1.8 million dollars attached. The pandemic intervened, and the option was never exercised. He returned to South America that August, joining Greek side Panetolikos.
Back in Argentina in July 2022, Pereyra signed for Godoy Cruz as a free agent. His time there was interrupted twice by loan spells abroad and at home: a stint with Kallithea in Greece in 2023, and a move to Instituto in early 2025, before he returned to Godoy Cruz later that year.
At youth level, Pereyra was part of the Argentina squad for the 2019 South American U20 Championship, playing four matches without scoring. Argentina finished the tournament as runners-up to Brazil.
Pereyra joined Defensa y Justicia as a free agent in early 2026.
