A familiar face from the recent success story of Lusitânia de Lourosa is making a big move. Midfielder Diogo Pereira, a key figure in their recent triumphs, is set to join Oliveirense for the upcoming season. This news, confirmed by Record, sees the 29-year-old taking the next step in his career.
Pereira leaves behind a strong legacy at Lusitânia de Lourosa. He spent the last two seasons with the club, playing a crucial role in their journey. His efforts helped them clinch the Liga 3 title and earn a well-deserved promotion to the second division. He was truly the heart of the midfield during that period.
Before his impactful time at Lourosa, Pereira honed his skills at various clubs. He spent a significant part of his youth training with Boavista. Later, he gained experience playing for teams like Cesarense, Anadia, Académica, and S. João Ver. At Lourosa, he quickly became a staple in the starting lineup, making 64 appearances. During those two seasons, he found the back of the net twice and set up three goals for his teammates.
This move marks an exciting return to the second division for Diogo Pereira. He last played at this level in the 2020-21 season, when he was with Académica. Stepping back onto this stage feels like a natural progression for a player who has consistently shown his dedication and skill on the pitch.
