Career

edit

Born 22 November 1997, in Seberi but raised in Rodeio Bonito, both in Rio Grande do Sul,[2] Perotti was a Chapecoense youth graduate. He made his senior debut on 12 March 2016, coming on as a late substitute in a 4–0 Campeonato Catarinense home win against Camboriú.

Perotti did not board LaMia Airlines Flight 2933 for the 2016 Copa Sudamericana Finals, which crashed and killed 19 of his teammates.[3] He made his Série A debut on 23 June 2017, replacing Luis Manuel Seijas in a 1–5 away loss against Flamengo.

Perotti scored his first senior goal on 2 March 2019, netting the winner in a 2–1 home success over Metropolitano. On 18 June, after failing to establish himself as a starter, Perotti was loaned to Portuguese Primeira Liga side C.D. Nacional for one year.[4]

Perotti returned from loan in August 2020, with his parent club now in the Série B.[5] He contributed with four goals in 21 appearances, as his side returned to the top tier as champions.

Perotti became a regular starter in the 2021 Catarinense, and scored 15 goals in the competition, which included a hat-trick in a 3–1 home win against Próspera.[6] On 6 April, he renewed his contract until 2024.[7]

On 3 January 2023, Perotti agreed to join to FC Tokyo on loan until January 2024, the end of J1 League season.[8][9]

On 13 January 2025, Polish club Radomiak Radom announced the signing of Perotti on a one-year contract, with an option to extend for another two-and-a-half years.[10]

On 10 June 2025, Perotti terminated his contract with Radomiak and returned to Chapecoense.[11]
