Pereira finished with three goals and three assists from 39 appearances (37 starts) in this past Championship season.
ANALYSIS
Pereira battled injuries the prior three campaigns in the Premier League, but he finally got healthy and stayed healthy en route to appearing in almost every league match for the Foxes. With one year left on his deal, he expects to compete for starting minutes next season, as his versatility can be used for a number of positions, not just full-back.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might return in the next few weeks
DLeicester City
October 21, 2020
Pereira (knee) could return to action in around six weeks, according to Karl Matchett of The Independent.
ANALYSIS
Leicester City could have one key figure back from injury soon, as Pereira has been out since March due to a knee injury that required surgery. The talented right-back is one of the best two-way players in the EPL and his return could represent a huge boost for Leicester defensively, especially with Caglar Soyuncu set to face an extended spell on the sidelines.
