Output in context · Flamengo finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
3.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 81.2% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 45, Pereira carries the 29th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 63. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.11 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
