Rob Edwards and O'Neil are two of the early names under consideration to replace Vitor Pereira as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The previous coach was dismissed on Sunday following the team's 10-match without a victory beginning to the top-flight campaign.

And Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have previous associations to the club - are among the options to be considered by the Wolves leadership.

Edwards is currently at Middlesbrough, which would create a possible obstacle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.

However the former Luton manager - who made more than 100 of games for the club during his playing career - is said to be a strong contender for the vacancy.

The 42-year-old is reportedly enjoys backing from the Wolves board as they start the search of hiring a fresh manager.

O'Neil is additionally appearing as a unexpected contender, even though he would be a surprising choice given he was sacked by the club in December last year.

The ex- West Ham midfielder is out of work meaning Wolves would not be required to provide any compensation.
