Wolves have sacked head coach Vitor Pereira after failing to win any of their 10 Premier League games this season. A 3-0 defeat by Fulham on Saturday was Wolves' eighth of the top-flight campaign. They are bottom of the table, eight points off safety.

Pereira took charge in December 2024 and signed a new three-year contract in September. But a section of supporters turned on him after the 3-2 loss to Burnley last week, when he was escorted away from heated discussions with fans after full-time at Molineux.

Wolves beat West Ham and Everton in the Carabao Cup this season but were knocked out in the last 16 by Chelsea on Wednesday.

Wolves were 19th when Pereira replaced Gary O'Neil last term, and he guided them to safety by finishing 16th.

Pereira lost several key players in the summer, with Matheus Cunha moving to Manchester United for £62.5m, Rayan Ait-Nouri joining Manchester City for £31m and Captain Nelson Semedo departing for Fenerbahce when his contract expired. Speculation over the future of Norway striker Jorgen Strand Larsen also proved an unwelcome distraction during Wolves' difficult start to the campaign, with Periera attempting to bed in five new recruits.
