Wolves Hire Vitor Pereira as New Coach

Wolverhampton Wanderers are set to appoint Vitor Pereira as their new head coach following the dismissal of Gary O'Neil after a disappointing season, culminating in a loss to Ipswich Town. Pereira, who has managed clubs like Flamengo and Olympiakos, is expected to sign an 18-month contract after reaching a compensation agreement with his current club, Al-Shabab. The Wolves are currently in the relegation zone, sitting 19th in the Premier League table, five points from safety. Pereira's familiarity with Wolves players, including Joao Moutinho and Daniel Podence, could benefit his integration into the team. The club aims for a swift appointment, with Pereira potentially in charge for their upcoming match against Leicester. Other candidates were considered, but Pereira has emerged as the frontrunner for the role.
