Rob Edwards as well as Gary O'Neil Among Wolves Head Coach Candidates

Edwards along with Gary O'Neil represent the early names under consideration to replace Vitor Pereira as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Pereira was dismissed on the weekend following the team's 10-match winless start to the top-flight season.
Furthermore Edwards and O'Neil - each of whom have previous associations to the club - are part of the options to be considered by the Wolves ownership.
Edwards is currently at Middlesbrough, which would pose a possible hurdle to his hiring at Wolves' stadium.
Nevertheless the former Luton head coach - who played over a century of games for the club during his playing career - is considered a leading contender for the position.
The mid-career manager is said to have support from the club directors as they start the process of appointing a fresh manager.
O'Neil is additionally emerging as a unexpected contender, even though he would be a surprising appointment given he was sacked by Wolves in December last year.
The ex- West Ham United midfielder is currently unemployed which means Wolves would not be required to provide any compensation.
