Vitor Pereira: Tolu Arokodare set to get new coach as Wolves dismiss manager

Wolves dismiss Vitor Pereira amid winless Premier League run Tolu Arokodare’s Wolverhampton Wanderers have parted ways with manager Vitor Pereira following a dismal start to the season that has seen the club fail to secure a single victory in their opening 10 Premier League matches. The decision came after a humbling 3-0 defeat to Fulham on Saturday, which marked Wolves' eighth loss of the campaign. The result leaves the club rooted to the bottom of the table, eight points adrift of safety. Pereira, who was appointed in December 2024 and had only recently signed a new three-year contract in September, faced mounting pressure from the fanbase. Tensions boiled over following last week's 3-2 home defeat to Burnley, where Pereira required an escort after engaging in heated exchanges with supporters at Molineux. Despite their struggles in the league, Wolves had found some success in the Carabao Cup, recording victories over West Ham and Everton before being eliminated by Chelsea in the last 16 on Wednesday. With the dismissal of Pereira, Super Eagles star Tolu Arokodare who joined Wolverhampton Wanderers on September 1, 2025, will get a new coach. The Nigerian has scored two goals in nine appearances for Wolves.
