Club career

Born in Vigo, Province of Pontevedra, Pérez started his professional career with hometown's Celta de Vigo. His stay, however, would not be a productive one, as he only managed 16 first-team appearances for the Galicians during his first three seasons combined.

From 1994 to 1996 Pérez appeared slightly more, but never established himself as an important member of the main squad, being subsequently loaned to UD Almería from Segunda División: he played the most he had in years, but suffered relegation. Upon his return to Celta, he made no La Liga appearances whatsoever and was released.

Pérez then took his game to Iberian Peninsula neighbours Portugal, first with G.D. Chaves. After one Primeira Liga campaign where he scored a career-best four goals (albeit with relegation), he joined another side in the north, Vitória de Guimarães.

In the 2001 summer, Pérez signed with second level team C.D. Nacional, helping it promote in his debut campaign (19 matches, two goals). He continued to feature regularly for the Madeirans in the following two seasons, after which he returned home, joining modest CD Ourense also in his native region; he retired at nearly 34.

Death

Settling in Pontevedra after his retirement, in the town of Nigrán, Pérez died on 5 July 2006 after parts of his house collapsed over his body, as he was lying in a hammock. Aged only 34, he left two small children.
