Bruno Pereirinha

Having started the 2018–19 season without a club, Pereirinha was signed in September by C.D. Cova da Piedade of the second tier.

In July 2017 Pereirinha returned to his country's top flight with a one-year contract at C.F. Os Belenenses, managed by Domingos Paciência, his last boss at Sporting. He played about half of their league games, split equally as a starter and substitute, and was sent off in the first half of the last one, a 1–0 loss at Boavista FC.

On 15 July 2015, Pereirinha left the Romans after buying out his contract.

On 15 July 2015, Pereirinha signed a two-year deal with Club Athletico Paranaense. He made his debut ten days later, as a 76th-minute substitute for Eduardo in a 2–1 Série A win at Avaí FC; on 15 October, after only one minute on the pitch, he scored his first goal for his new team to put them back ahead in an eventual 2–2 draw against Cruzeiro Esporte Clube at the Arena da Baixada.

In 2012–13, Pereirinha was completely ostracised by all four Sporting managers – as several other Portuguese players – also being demoted to the B-team in the second level and dealing with a right knee injury. Subsequently, he cut ties with the club and signed shortly after with S.S. Lazio in Italy, for three and a half years.

On 22 June 2010, being deemed surplus to requirements at Sporting, the 22-year-old Pereirinha was loaned to fellow Primeira Liga side Vitória de Guimarães, initially in a season-long move. In early January 2011, however, he joined Kavala F.C. of the Super League Greece also on loan.

In the following years, Pereirinha continued to be regularly used, but almost exclusively from the bench. On 21 March 2009, in a rare start, he opened the score against Lisbon neighbours S.L. Benfica in the final of the Portuguese League Cup, but the Lions eventually lost on penalties after 1–1 in regulation time.

In 2007, aged 19, Pereirinha broke into the Portugal under-21 side, also representing the nation in the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup held in Canada. On 25 March 2009 he, alongside teammate Rui Pedro, was suspended by under-21 coach Carlos Queiroz after both attempted an unsuccessful backpass penalty during a match against Cape Verde for the Madeira International Tournament (the score was then at 2–0 for the hosts).

On 13 March 2008, in the campaign's UEFA Cup round-of-16 second leg against Bolton Wanderers, Pereirinha scored an 85th-minute goal that gave Sporting a 1–0 home victory and a spot in the quarter-finals. He had also netted in the previous round, to help beat hosts FC Basel 3–0.

Born in Rio de Mouro, Lisbon District, Pereirinha made his professional debut for Sporting CP in 2006–07, having started that same season on loan at second division team C.D. Olivais e Moscavide, as Miguel Veloso before him. His first appearance for the main squad came on 13 January 2007, playing 18 minutes of a 0–0 away draw with C.F. Os Belenenses, the club where he spent most of his youth career.

Bruno Alexandre Marques Pereirinha (born 2 March 1988) is a Portuguese footballer. He plays mainly as a right midfielder, also being able to operate as an attacking right back.
