2025 Fantasy Outlook
Austin FC's first overall pick in their first MLS SuperDraft in 2021, Pereira earned himself a new contract extension this offseason. The deal keeps Pereira in Austin through next season with a team option for 2026. He's now played 2,000-plus minutes in each of the last three seasons, contributing four assists with some spot work on set pieces this past campaign. After Alexander Ring's option was declined, Pereira should have a more significant role in the midfield.
Called up with Venezuela
Pereira has been called up by Venezuela for international duty and will therefore miss Sunday's clash against Sporting Kansas City, according to the league.
ANALYSIS
Pereira has been a regular starter in the midfield for Austin recently and will have to be replaced in the starting XI on Sunday against Sporting Kansas City due to his call-up for national team duty. Nicolas Dubersarsky will likely have a larger role in that match.
