Wolves have sacked head coach Rob Edwards after just seven months following their relegation from the Premier League.
The club had previously put on a united front and insisted they were behind the 43-year-old, appointed last November.
Cesar Peixoto, who guided Gil Vicente to sixth place in Portugal's Primeira Liga during the season just completed, has been linked with the job at Molineux.
Wolves had already started planning for the Championship by signing Kieran Trippier on a free from Newcastle, with Edwards key to the deal, while Raul Jimenez returned, with his Fulham contract expiring at the end of the month.
Technical director Matt Jackson said last month that the club's hierarchy was aligned in supporting Edwards as they looked to rebuild the squad.
"The plan and the goal is to get promoted straight away but we understand a lot of change has to take place," Jackson said.
"If there isn't alignment here, we're dead in the water before we start, so that discussion has been going on for months already."
Edwards left a Championship promotion race with Middlesbrough, replacing Vitor Pereira, but won just five of his 30 games in all competitions, losing 16.
Wolves finished bottom of the Premier League - and the former Forest Green, Watford and Luton boss called for change at the club recently.
"We're a collective and I'll take responsibility of course but it's not an effort thing, it's the fact that we're the worst team in the league. That's the bottom line," said Edwards at a Q&A hosted by BBC WM last month.
"I'll be careful what I say because I've got to work with the boys as well for the next couple of weeks but we're not good enough.
"That's the situation we came into. I knew coming here in November, I might be sitting here in front of a lot of very angry people because this place is in a mess. I wanted to come here, I wanted to try and help."
