Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil are two of the initial candidates in the frame to succeed the former manager as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Pereira was dismissed on the weekend following the team's 10-match winless beginning to the Premier League season.
Furthermore Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have historic links to the team - are part of the names to be evaluated by the Wolves ownership.
The manager is presently at Middlesbrough, which would create a possible hurdle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.
Nevertheless the former Luton Town head coach - who played over a century of games for the club during his playing career - is said to be a leading candidate for the position.
The 42-year-old is said to have backing from the club board as they begin the process of appointing a fresh head coach.
Gary O'Neil is also appearing as a surprise contender, although he would be a surprising appointment given he was sacked by Wolves in the previous winter.
The former West Ham United midfielder is currently unemployed which means the club would not need to pay any compensation.
