Biography
Defensive midfielder and captain, at River across two spells (2017–23 and 2025). His most famous night came in May 2021, when a COVID outbreak left the squad without a single fit goalkeeper for a Copa Libertadores tie against Independiente Santa Fe — Pérez pulled on the gloves, played all ninety minutes in goal, and River won 2-1.
His second spell at the club ended in 2025.
