This comes in the midst of uncertainty around Jorgen Strand Larsenâs future, though Wolves have been clear that a striker is needed regardless of the Norwegianâs decision.
If he does go, however, a new face will be needed, and Vitor Pereira is looking at one particular player he tried to sign in the winter window.
Wolves back in for Corinthians striker Yuri Alberto
Sources close to Molineux News say Pereira is still interested in bringing 24-year-old Brazilian striker Yuri Alberto to Wolves.
Alberto was a key part of Pereiraâs Corinthians side and the Wolves boss has been vocal about his admiration.

During the winter window, rumours of a potential reunion circulated, but they never came to fruition.
MORE WOLVES STORIES
At the start of the summer, the links to Alberto resurfaced. His impressive tally of 31 goals in all competitions last season makes him an attractive option to hopefully back up Strand Larsen, or possibly replace him if Newcastle get their way.
Wolvesâ striker links donât confirm a Jorgen Strand Larsen departure
As exciting as new links are, some Wolves fans wonât be too happy to see such heavy interest in the position, as they cling to the hope of Strand Larsen staying.
But it doesnât confirm anything. Wolves have been burnt too many times in the window, putting their eggs in one basket and being left back at square one, which is what seems to be happening with Christantus Uche.
That wonât work this week, as time to the deadline winds down.
One striker is needed regardless of what happens in the next week, and having a couple of attractive options lined up is a good thing.
