Wolves parted ways with Bruno Lage at the weekend, and the club now need to find a manager who can steer them away from a relegation battle.
Having picked up just four points from eight games, they find themselves in the relegation zone, and are just two points ahead of Leicester City and Nottingham Forest. Fortunately the gap is also close to those clubs directly above Wolves in the league, and stringing a few good results together will make everything look a whole lot better.
The key is finding someone who can come in and hit the ground running. Multiple Portuguese managers have naturally been linked, given the club’s reliance on players from the country.
One of those is Sporting’s Ruben Amorim, and he was asked on Tuesday about the reports linking him with a move to the Premier League club.
Correio da Manha quote the manager as saying: “It’s the same answer as in other situations, I’m very happy and I like being at Sporting. I won’t say more about it.”
There’s not a great belief in Portugal that Amorim would be tempted by Wolves, despite some English bookmakers originally having him as one of the favourites for the job.
