"Middlesbrough boss Rob Edwards says he understands why he has been linked with the managerial vacancy at Premier League strugglers Wolverhampton Wanderers, but is concentrating solely on Tuesday's game against Leicester. Edwards, 42, made 100 league appearances for Wolves between 2004 and 2008 and has held various coaching roles at the club since. The winless West Midlands side sacked boss Vitor Pereira on Sunday and are eight points adrift of safety, with ex-boss Gary O'Neil reportedly in talks about a return to the club."
""I can understand it with my links to the club but my full focus is on this job here, which is a brilliant job, and trying to turn things around for a really big game against Leicester," he told BBC Radio Tees. "It's hard for me to comment on speculation and anything other than Middlesbrough. "We've done a decent job so far and all I care about is trying to win tomorrow.""
Rob Edwards understands why he has been linked with the managerial vacancy at Wolverhampton Wanderers because he made 100 league appearances for Wolves between 2004 and 2008 and has held various coaching roles at the club. He says his full focus is on Middlesbrough and preparing for Tuesday's game against Leicester. Wolverhampton sacked Vitor Pereira and sit eight points adrift of safety, with former manager Gary O'Neil reportedly in talks about a return. Edwards led Luton into the Premier League in May 2023 and was appointed Middlesbrough boss in June after Michael Carrick was sacked. Middlesbrough sit second in the Championship, three points behind Coventry City.
