Rob Edwards and O'Neil are two of the early names under consideration to replace the former manager as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The previous coach was sacked on Sunday following the team's ten-game winless beginning to the Premier League season.

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

The manager is presently at Middlesbrough, which would create a potential obstacle to his appointment at Molineux.

However the former Luton head coach - who played over a century of games for the club during his time as a player - is considered a leading contender for the vacancy.

The mid-career manager is said to have support from the Wolves directors as they begin the search of appointing a fresh manager.

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

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