Wolves have sacked Vitor Pereira weeks after he signed a new long-term contract.

Sunday's dismissal came less than 24 hours after Wolves suffered a 3-0 defeat at Fulham, continuing the club's disastrous start to the Premier League season.

The club's announcement, which included a formal thanks to the Portuguese manager and his team for their "tireless work and commitment," could not mask the stark reality at Molineux.
