Vitor Pereira has been relieved of his duties as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers following a string of poor performances at the start of the Premier League season. The team suffered a 3-0 defeat to Fulham, marking the latest in a series of disappointing results that have left the Wolves with just two points from their first ten league matches. The game against Fulham was further complicated by the first-half red card shown to defender Emmanuel Agbadu, which prompted chants from fans calling for Pereira's dismissal.

Pereira, who signed a new three-year contract with the club just 45 days ago, failed to improve Wolverhampton's form. The team remains the only one without a victory across the top four divisions in England. Discontent among supporters surfaced after a 3-2 loss to Burnley, when calls for his sacking were first heard. Appointed in December 2024, Pereira had managed to lift the team from second-to-last to 16th place by the end of the season.

Following the defeat to Fulham, Pereira admitted it was the worst performance under his leadership. He expressed his disappointment with the players' physical conditioning and the technical errors that led to the loss. Despite his and his staff's efforts, the results did not improve, leading to his departure.

Analysis: The situation at Wolverhampton is alarming, with the lack of victories and disappointing results highlighting the need for significant changes. The new manager will urgently need to enhance the team's physical and tactical preparation to avoid relegation to a lower division.
