Rob Edwards along with Gary O'Neil represent the initial candidates in the frame to replace the former manager as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The previous coach was sacked on the weekend after the team's 10-match winless start to the top-flight campaign.

Furthermore both candidates - each of whom have previous links to the club - are among the options to be evaluated by the club ownership.

Edwards is presently at Middlesbrough, which would pose a possible hurdle to his hiring at Molineux.

However the former Luton head coach - who made more than 100 of games for the club during his time as a player - is said to be a strong contender for the position.

The 42-year-old is said to have backing from the Wolves board as they begin the process of hiring a fresh manager.

O'Neil is also emerging as a surprise candidate, even though he would be a surprising choice given he was sacked by the club in December last year.

The ex- West Ham player is currently unemployed meaning the club would not be required to provide any compensation.
