Wolves have been very poor in the Premier League this season and manager Vitor Pereira has been shown the door.
Wolves decided to part ways with their manager on Sunday after suffering their eighth Premier League defeat of the season. They haven’t brought in a quality player to replace him yet, but it looks like they’re already starting to make moves.
Abel Ferreira on Wolves’ radar
According to reports, inquiries have been made regarding Palmeiras coach Abel Ferreira.
Wolves lost to Fulham last week but were determined to pull the trigger. A high quality replacement needs to be installed now. They are one of the favorites to win this season and by appointing a quality manager they may be able to fight back and save their season.
ESPN Brazil reports that approaches have been made for Abel Ferreira, with Wolves yet to submit a formal offer for him.
Can Ferreira turn things around?
The Portuguese manager is highly regarded across Europe and has been linked with clubs such as Nottingham Forest and Chelsea. The opportunity to move to the Premier League could be an exciting one for him. His attacking philosophy could be an exciting fit for Wolves.
There is no doubt that they have quality players at their disposal. Pereira didn’t bring out the best in his team. It will be interesting to see if Abel Ferreira can turn things around if he takes over as manager of a Premier League club.
The 46-year-old is a good manager with a bright future and it would be a good thing for Wolves to secure his contract. They must consider bringing in a quality manager before the January window opens so they can plan for a potential mid-season transfer. Wolves may need high-quality reinforcement to survive.
