How Long Would You Wait for a Dream? One year? Five? Maybe ten?

Vítor Pereira waited for fourteen years.

His Premier League dream began back in 2010 as André Villas-Boas’ assistant at Porto. A year later, he took over as head coach — and in his debut season, he won the league. The next season? Another title.

In 2013, he came close to realising his dream when Everton interviewed him. But nothing happened.

Then began a long, winding journey — Saudi Arabia, Greece, Germany, China, and even Brazil. His Premier League dream looked dead until December 2024. Premier League team Wolverhampton Wanderers were in crisis — just 9 points in 16 games, staring at relegation. And then Pereira was handed the charge. But what followed was nothing short of remarkable.

The club collected 33 points in the next 22 matches, beating teams like Aston Villa, Tottenham, and Manchester United along the way, which confirmed Wolves survival in the Premier League.

Fourteen years. Across six countries. For one dream. And he made it count.
