Pereira was dismissed on the weekend after the squad's 10-match winless beginning to the Premier League campaign.

The manager is currently at Middlesbrough, which would create a possible obstacle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.

Nevertheless the ex- Luton head coach - who played more than 100 of appearances for Wolves during his time as a player - is considered a strong contender for the vacancy.

The mid-career manager is reportedly enjoys support from the club directors as they start the search of appointing a new head coach.

Gary O'Neil is additionally emerging as a unexpected contender, although he would be a surprising appointment given he was released by Wolves in December last year.
