Alious “Vitor Pereira Delivers Ruthless Verdict on £4m Wolves Star – Reveals What He’s Lacking to Succeed at Molineux”**
Wolves may be ending their Premier League campaign on a high, stringing together five consecutive wins, but plans for the summer rebuild are already in motion. The club is preparing for life without key stars — and that includes more than just Matheus Cunha, who’s reportedly on his way to Manchester United in a £62.5 million blockbuster move.
Another name quietly headed for the exit is midfielder **Tommy Doyle**, and manager **Vitor Pereira** hasn’t minced words about why.
Despite being praised for his technical quality, Doyle has been firmly on the fringes of Pereira’s squad and hasn’t played since a 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest in January. In a brutally honest interview with the *Express & Star*, Pereira admitted that while Doyle shines in possession, he lacks the **physical intensity** needed for Wolves’ two-man midfield system.
> “He’s missing the physicality,” Pereira stated. “To cover ground, to run box-to-box… we’re not a team that dominates possession, so he struggles. If we were a ball-dominant side, he’d fit — but we’re not.”
Pereira added that Doyle might thrive as a number 10 in a system that accommodates three midfielders, highlighting his vision, passing, and attacking instincts. However, at Wolves, where energy and endurance are non-negotiable, Doyle doesn’t fit the mould.
With interest already brewing — including from Sunderland, who tried to land him in January — Doyle appears set for a summer departure. Pereira hinted that an open conversation with the player is imminent, where the decision to part ways will likely be mutual.
> “If he wants more minutes and I can’t offer them, then it’s time to talk. Players need to be happy to be at their best.”
While he still enjoys support from some fans, Doyle’s Wolves journey seems to be nearing its end. A move may be the only way for the 23-year-old to reignite his career and play consistent top-level football.
