da brwin: Wolves could be eyeing up Corinthians manager Vitor Pereira as their new incoming boss at Molineux, according to a new rumour that has emerged.
The Lowdown: Manager search ongoing
da dobrowin: Bruno Lage was sacked by Wanderers earlier this month, following a below-par start to the Premier League season, in a big change at the club.
Wolves have been patient when it comes to nailing the Portuguese’s replacement, however, with his successor not yet confirmed over three weeks later.
Now, a fresh report is doing the rounds, however, as the club look to find the ideal replacement for Lage.
The Latest: Pereira rumour emerges
According to Sport Witness, Band host Neto has confirmed that Pereira may end up at Wolves, saying the Old Gold could snap him up.
The 54-year-old reportedly won’t be staying at Corinthians for another season and his current deal runs out at the end of this year.

The Portuguese could be an intriguing option, however, having won the Primeira Liga with Porto twice – not to mention a Greek Super League title with Olympiakos and a Chinese Super League title with Shanghai SIPG.
Pereira would bring with him a proven winning mentality in Europe and he has been renowned for his attacking style – something that would be a refreshing change from Lage, and Nuno Espirito Santo before him.
