Wolverhampton Wanderers have reportedly been in talks with a potential new manager to replace Vitor Pereira.
Wolves transfers ramp up with Old Gold on course to avoid relegation
The Old Gold have once again been involved in a Premier League relegation battle this season, however, following Pereira’s arrival in December, Wolves have pulled away from the bottom three.
Pereira replaced Gary O’Neil at Molineux and signed a deal until 2026 in the Midlands, and with another year in the top flight on the cards, those behind the scenes at Wolves are now working on potential signings.

Pereira could save millions on Jota by unleashing Wolves' 20-year-old star
Wolves may have their next Diogo Jota in a promising young forward.
High up on the to-do list could be to find a new striker to replace Matheus Cunha. The Brazilian, who recently penned a new deal with Wolves, is still wanted ahead of the summer and recently hinted he was ready to leave the club to fight for titles.
Asked for his response to Cunha’s comments this week, Pereira said: "He knows his potential as a top player and for me it's normal that he has the ambition to fight for titles. For me, this is natural. It happens with other players at other clubs.
"The most important thing is to be committed to help the team to achieve our targets. This is the most important thing at this moment and at the end of the season we'll see."

More than one discussion has been held between Wolves and De Rossi, who has been out of work since being sacked by AS Roma last September. De Rossi is thought to be open to a move to England and already has family connections in the country.
The 41-year-old has had two managerial jobs so far since retiring as a player, the first of which came with SPAL between October 2022 and February 2023.

Then, after taking over as interim AS Roma manager in January 2024, De Rossi was given the job on a permanent basis in the summer but didn’t last long before he was axed.
The Italian plays an attacking 4-3-3 formation, as per Transfermarkt, and by the looks of things, a move to England and Wolves could be one to keep an eye on.
