Wolves are on the search for a new manager again after an awful start to the season. Vitor Pereira picked up just two points and the team sit rock bottom of the Premier League. They most recently lost 3-0 to Fulham and Pereira has been sent packing despite signing a new three-year deal in just September.

Given that Wolves have not won since an incredible six-game winning streak at the business end of last season - a run that effectively secured their survival - it’s no surprise Pereira is gone, and football betting sites have the latest odds on who will replace him.

Pereira had been heavy favourite in the Premier League Sack Race betting for some time, so the timing of his departure didn't come as a surprise. Surprisingly, Pereira's predecessor Gary O'Neil has been the front-runner to make a shock return to Molineux but talks reportedly broke down between the two parties. It is now former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag who is reportedly under consideration alongside Middlesbrough boss Rob Edwards and former Boro manager Michael Carrick.

Brendan Rodgers In For Premier League Return?

After parting ways with Celtic, Brendan Rogers might be looking for an immediate move back into management, and more importantly a move back into the Premier League. Wolves would be his fourth attempt at managing in the league after previous spells at Swansea, Liverpool and Leicester, with enough success at those clubs to just about have some credit in the bank to warrant another crack with a top division side.

Whether the Wolves hierarchy will want to appoint someone who has just fallen out with those above him is the big question here.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Also In Running

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been jobless since getting sacked by Besiktas back in August. The Norwegian has plenty of experience that would be of interest to a club like Wolves, most notably his three-year stint in charge of Manchester United.

That Besiktas role was Solskjaer’s first since 2021, and he may well be looking for a quick return to management. He’s a big name and has the kind of experience the Wolves board could like the look of. It would be no shock to see his odds shorten on UK betting apps in the coming days.

Could Kevin Muscat Return To Wolves?

It was just a matter of weeks ago that Kevin Muscat was reportedly very close to taking the then-vacant Rangers job before it fell apart. That was due to him wanting to finish the season at Shanghai Port, which would have meant a delayed start at Rangers into November.

That may be less of a problem for Wolves as they look to find a way out of the mess they find themselves in. Muscat played for the club 180 times and has an impressive CV with trophy wins in Australia, Japan and China. Perhaps he is ready for a job in the Premier League, with odds at most Trustly betting sites suggesting he will interest the Wolves hierarchy.

Could Sérgio Conceição Make Switch to Premier League?

Sérgio Conceição is a highly respected manager who achieved great things at FC Porto, and it’s hard to get away from the fact that Wolverhampton Wanderers could leverage that Portuguese connection to potentially secure someone of that nationality to take charge of a squad that have a number of native Portuguese speaking players.

This would surely be a popular appointment with the Wolves fans considering the manager’s track record is impressive, and most new betting sites think he could be the person most likely sought after if Pereira leaves. However, the fact he took over at Al-Ittihad on a two-year deal in October could keep him out of the running.
