Edwards and Gary O'Neil are two of the early candidates under consideration to succeed Vitor Pereira as manager of Wolves.

Pereira was dismissed on Sunday after the team's ten-game without a victory start to the Premier League campaign.

Furthermore both candidates - both of who have previous links to the club - are part of the names to be considered by the club ownership.

The manager is currently at Middlesbrough, which would pose a possible obstacle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.

However the ex- Luton Town head coach - who made over a century of appearances for the club during his playing career - is considered a strong candidate for the vacancy.

The mid-career manager is said to have support from the Wolves directors as they start the search of appointing a new head coach.

O'Neil is also emerging as a unexpected candidate, even though he would be a surprising appointment considering he was released by Wolves in December last year.

The former West Ham United midfielder is out of work which means Wolves would not need to provide any compensation.
