Wolverhampton Wanderers have parted ways with head coach V\u00edtor Pereira, as reported by Fabrizio Romano<\/a> on X.

Wolves have failed to win any of their opening ten league games, making them the only team in Premier League history to go winless in their first ten games in consecutive seasons.

The decision to hand Pereira a new three-year contract following five straight defeats in the league now looks even more absurd following the decision to sack him.<\/p>\n
