Edwards and O'Neil are two of the early candidates in the frame to replace the former manager as manager of Wolves.

Pereira was dismissed on Sunday following the squad's 10-match without a victory start to the top-flight campaign.

And both candidates - both of who have previous associations to the club - are part of the options to be evaluated by the club leadership.

The manager is presently at another club, which would pose a possible obstacle to his appointment at Molineux.

However the ex- Luton manager - who made over a century of games for the club during his time as a player - is said to be a strong contender for the position.

The 42-year-old is reportedly enjoys backing from the club directors as they begin the search of appointing a fresh head coach.

O'Neil is additionally emerging as a unexpected contender, even though he would be a surprising choice given he was sacked by the club in the previous winter.

The ex- West Ham United player is out of work meaning Wolves would not need to pay any buyout fee.
