Vitor Pereira ‘Travelling to England’ Today for Wolves Job
Vitor Pereira has agreed to terms to become the next Wolves manager and will fly into England today to complete the deal, sources have told GIVEMESPORT.
The Midlands club made the decision to sack boss Gary O’Neil on Sunday morning after a late defeat against Ipswich left the club with just two league wins all season, and the team sat in 19th place in the Premier League table.
But the club have moved quickly to appoint a successor and Portuguese coach Pereira has now emerged as the man who will be tasked with keeping the team in the top-flight in the second half of the season.
Wolves have agreed to pay the release clause in his contract at Saudi club Al-Shabab, which GIVEMESPORT sources have been informed is around €1m, and the 56-year-old is set to travel to England on Tuesday to dot the t’s and cross the i’s on a deal.
GIVEMESPORT spoke to Pereira earlier this year and he revealed that it was his dream to manage in the Premier League at some point in his career. He also informed Al-Shabab of this wish once the opportunity to move to Wolves arose, and the club have made the exit possible. It’s believed that his move is amicable between all parties.
