A Manchester United legend is reportedly among the frontrunners to become Wolverhampton Wanderers manager after Vitor Pereira was sacked on Sunday. Pereira became the fourth Premier League boss to lose his job this season with Wolves bottom of the table and win-less after 10 games.

Wolves wanted stability and consistency but the axe fell for Vitor Pereira on Sunday with the club eight points from safety.

Wolves have sacked Vitor Pereira and there is already a race on to replace the Portuguese manager at Molineux.

Matheus Cunha is settling in at Manchester United with Ruben Amorim's team currently on a three-game winning run.
