Wolverhampton Wanderers
Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly on the verge of making an official approach for Middlesbrough head coach Rob Edwards. Ever since Vitor Pereira was sacked on Sunday, the Premier League's bottom club have been attempting to secure the services of a successor. Once Gary O'Neil withdrew from the race after discussions over a Molineux return, former Benfica and Panathinaikos boss Rui Vitoria seemingly became a contender.

Wolverhampton Wanderers
Wolverhampton Wanderers are allegedly giving consideration to appointing yet another Portuguese head coach. On Sunday, the Premier League's bottom club announced that they had sacked Vitor Pereira after a 14-match winless streak in the division stretching back to the end of April. Gary O'Neil was initially earmarked for a shock return to Molineux before he withdrew from the race, potentially through the backlash from supporters given that the Englishman was only sacked 11 months ago.
