Edwards and Gary O'Neil represent the initial candidates under consideration to succeed Vitor Pereira as head coach of Wolves.

Pereira was sacked on Sunday after the squad's ten-game without a victory beginning to the Premier League season.

And Edwards and O'Neil - each of whom have historic links to the club - are part of the names to be considered by the Wolves ownership.

The manager is presently at another club, which would pose a potential hurdle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.

However the ex- Luton Town head coach - who played over a century of games for Wolves during his time as a player - is considered a strong contender for the position.

The 42-year-old is said to have backing from the Wolves directors as they start the search of hiring a fresh head coach.

O'Neil is additionally emerging as a unexpected contender, even though he would be a shock appointment considering he was released by the club in the previous winter.

The ex- West Ham player is currently unemployed which means Wolves would not need to provide any compensation.
