"Image source, Getty Images Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil are two of the early names in the frame to replace Vitor Pereira as manager of Wolves. Pereira was sacked on Sunday following the team's 10-match winless start to the Premier League season. And Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have historic links to the club - are among the names to be considered by the Wolves ownership."
"Edwards is currently at Middlesbrough, which would pose a potential obstacle to his appointment at Molineux. However the former Luton head coach - who made more than 100 appearances for Wolves during his playing career - is said to be a strong contender for the vacancy. The 42-year-old is said to have support from the Wolves board as they start the process of appointing a new head coach."
Vitor Pereira was sacked after Wolves began the Premier League season with a 10-match winless run. Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil are early candidates to replace him and both have historic links to the club. Edwards currently manages Middlesbrough, which could complicate any move to Molineux, but he made more than 100 appearances for Wolves and is considered a strong contender with apparent board support. O'Neil is an unexpected candidate after being sacked by Wolves in December; he is currently out of work, so his appointment would not require compensation.
