Furthermore Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have historic associations to the team - are among the options to be evaluated by the Wolves leadership.

Edwards is currently at another club, which would create a possible hurdle to his hiring at Molineux.

Nevertheless the former Luton manager - who made more than 100 of appearances for the club during his time as a player - is considered a leading contender for the position.

The mid-career manager is reportedly enjoys support from the Wolves board as they begin the process of hiring a new manager.

Gary O'Neil is additionally appearing as a unexpected candidate, although he would be a surprising appointment given he was sacked by Wolves in December last year.

The former West Ham player is currently unemployed which means the club would not need to pay any buyout fee.
