Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil represent the initial candidates in the frame to replace the former manager as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Pereira was dismissed on Sunday following the team's ten-game winless beginning to the Premier League campaign.
And both candidates - each of whom have historic links to the team - are part of the names to be considered by the club leadership.
The manager is presently at Middlesbrough, which would create a possible hurdle to his hiring at Wolves' stadium.
Nevertheless the ex- Luton manager - who played over a century of appearances for Wolves during his playing career - is considered a strong contender for the vacancy.
The mid-career manager is reportedly enjoys support from the Wolves directors as they begin the search of hiring a new head coach.
O'Neil is also emerging as a unexpected contender, although he would be a shock appointment given he was sacked by Wolves in December last year.
The ex- West Ham United midfielder is currently unemployed meaning the club would not be required to pay any buyout fee.
