The centre-back, who arrived earlier in the month from French club Reims for an initial £15million, has played four times for Wolves in all competitions and put in an assured display against Arsenal in his Molineux debut at the weekend.

Pereira admits he has been impressed with the Ivory Coast international's physicality and insists the best it yet to come when he moves Agbadou to his favoured position.

"He's a strong, strong, strong player," Pereira said.

"He's been with us for two or three weeks and he's in the process of adapting to this league, but he's very strong.

"He's strong in the air, strong on the ground, strong in the duels.

"He's playing on the left side and it's difficult for him of course, but he was fantastic in my opinion.
