Career

Early career

Perea attended Miami Sunset High School in Miami, Florida and graduated in 2004 after winning a state title.[1]

Univ. San Martín

In late 2011, Perea signed with Peruvian Primera División side Universidad San Martín de Porres ahead of the 2012 season.[2] On 20 February 2012, after Perea and several other San Martín players went on strike, the club announced it would not participate in the upcoming season and that the contracts of its players would be terminated.[3][4]

FC Dallas

On 13 March 2012, Perea returned to the United States and signed with Major League Soccer side FC Dallas.[5] Perea made two appearances for Dallas before he and the club agreed to the mutual termination of his contract on 4 April.[6]

Return to San Martín

After leaving FC Dallas, Perea re-signed with Universidad San Martín, which had resumed operations in time to participate in the new season.[6] On 14 April 2012, Perea made an exceptional debut for San Martín, scoring a hat-trick after coming on as a half-time substitute in a 5–1 win over Juan Aurich.[7] He went on to score 11 goals in 29 appearances that season, including 20 starts.[8]

In 2013, Perea scored 14 goals for San Martín in 36 appearances, including 29 starts.[8]

In 2014, Perea scored 11 goals in 27 appearances in league play, including 24 starts.[8] He was also instrumental in San Martín's run to the finals of the Copa Inca that year, becoming the competition's top scorer with 12 goals in 14 appearances.[8][9] This included a second-half injury time penalty which turned out to be the decisive goal in a 3–1 comeback win over Melgar, a win that clinched San Martín's place in the final.[10] In the final against Alianza Lima Perea scored the opening goal, a 16th-minute penalty, before being sent off in the 40th minute for a second yellow card.[11] Alianza went on to win the match on penalties.

Perea finished the season as top scorer of the 2018 Clausura with 14 goals in 18 appearances, and scored another goal in FAS's playoff series against Audaz.[8][18]
