Kevin Tadeo Pereira Leguizamon (born 15 January 2004) is a Paraguayan footballer who plays as a forward for Paraguayan side Sportivo Luqueño.
Pereira started his career with amateur side Río Salado de Limpio, and was recruited by Deportivo Capiatá at the age of thirteen.[2][3] He made his debut for Capiatá at the age of fourteen in the Copa Paraguay against Teniente Fariña, becoming the youngest professional footballer in the country at the time.[3]
Just after his eighteenth birthday, he moved to Argentina to join Talleres de Córdoba, stating that he felt "as if he were at home" with the Córdoba-based club.[4][5]
