Notes - Extremely rare player shirt believed to have been issued to or worn by Alfonso Darío Pereyra Bueno. Pereyra played as a midfielder for Club Nacional de Football in his home country, Uruguay, reached stardom playing for São Paulo FC as a centre-back along with Oscar. He is still remembered and revered as one of the best centre-backs in the history of Brazilian football. Darío Pereyra started his career at the Nacional de Montevideo and debuted at the Uruguay national squad when he was only 18, becoming the captain of the national team at 19. He joined São Paulo F.C. on 17 October 1977 for 5 million cruzeiros, the second largest sum to be ever paid for a player at the time in Brazil. In December 1977, Real Madrid C.F. made an offer that could have cut his São Paulo career short, but the player was not interested in playing in Spain.
Throughout his time at São Paulo, he and Oscar, who was also a centre-back, became a line of defence that is frequently remembered as one of the best in that club's history. He played a total of 451 matches in that club, scoring 38 goals. After the 1988 São Paulo state championship, Pereyra has transferred to Flamengo, where he played only 11 matches. After that, he was hired by Palmeiras in early 1989, when he was already 32. One year later, he moved to Japan to play for two years at Gamba Osaka, then called Matsushita Electronic, where he ended his playing career.
Darío Pereyra also made regular appearances in the Uruguay national team, and has played in the 1986 FIFA World Cup.
