The statement read,
“Unfortunately, the start to this season has been a disappointment and, despite our strong desire to give the head coach time and matches to find an improvement, we have reached a point where we must make a change. We thank Vítor and his staff for their efforts and wish them the very best for the future.”

The Portuguese had earlier signed a new three-year contract on 18 September, 2025. Pereira’s major highlight at Wolves was when he was nominated candidate for Premier League manager of the season in 2024-25.
