Earlier this week Trippier along with Raul Jimenez were signed by the relegated Premier League club, with head coach Rob Edwards featuring heavily in the club media that accompanied the announcements.
However 36 hours on from the Jimenez unveiling Wolves announced that Edwards had been sacked after what was alleged to be a comprehensive review.
Reports in Portugal have claimed that Wolves have spent several weeks in negotiations with Gil Vicente boss Cesar Peixoto, represented by super agent Jorge Mendes who has links with Wolves owners Fosun International.
According to reports Trippier has been left angry by the situation that has unfolded.

In the club media former England international Trippier spoke highly of Edwards and the part he played in attracting him to Molineux.
However reports suggest the wheels were already in motion for a change in manager.
Trippier reportedly feels betrayed by Wolves and found out about the decision to sack Edwards from someone outside of the club.
Furthermore Trippier is said to have opted for Wolves over a number of other clubs due to the influence of Edwards.
That has allegedly left him considering his legal options ahead of the start of his contract which begins on July 1.
Many of Wolves’ dressing room are said to have been left feeling similar to Trippier after the shock development this week.
Acquiring Trippier and securing a reunion with Jimenez who scored for Mexico in their World Cup opener on Thursday had created a feel good factor at a club that badly needed it.
Instead many fans have been left outraged by the timing of the decision by Fosun International, seemingly from owner Guo Guangchang rather than Wolves executive chairman Nathan Shi, and the manner in which they have gone about it.
With the pending appointment of Peixoto there is also the anticipation of a number of Mendes represented players arriving at Molineux.
Although such an approach worked under Nuno Espirito Santo in 2017-18 this scenario feels different.
