Edwards along with O'Neil represent the early candidates in the frame to succeed the former manager as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Pereira was dismissed on the weekend following the squad's 10-match without a victory start to the Premier League season.

Furthermore both candidates - each of whom have previous associations to the club - are part of the names to be considered by the club ownership.

Edwards is presently at Middlesbrough, which would create a potential obstacle to his appointment at Molineux.

Nevertheless the former Luton Town head coach - who made over a century of appearances for Wolves during his time as a player - is considered a leading contender for the position.

The mid-career manager is reportedly enjoys backing from the Wolves board as they begin the process of appointing a new head coach.

Gary O'Neil is also emerging as a unexpected candidate, although he would be a surprising choice given he was released by the club in the previous winter.

The ex- West Ham United midfielder is currently unemployed meaning Wolves would not need to pay any buyout fee.
