Scout report
D. Pereira is a 27-year-old central midfielder at Crawley Town, rated 24 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 72nd of 134 on scout potential in the League Two. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (42.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.01 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pereira.
Judged on this season alone, Pereira graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 18th of 32 of the 32 central midfielders in the League Two, on 0 goals, 5 assists and 1.012 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 2 → 14). Across the 5 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 24, 17th of 32 of the 32 central midfielders in the League Two. At 27 Pereira is in his prime years, and a market index of 2.6 reflects that trajectory.
Pereira is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
Output in context · Crawley Town finished 22nd of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
1.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (22nd of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 5 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.25 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central midfielder.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 42.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Defensive numbers. Modest 1.01 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 24, Pereira carries the 17th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League Two of 32, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Crawley Town finished 22nd of 24) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.01 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
