Edwards as well as O'Neil Among Wolverhampton Wanderers Head Coach Contenders
Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil each possess previous links with Wolves
- Published8 minutes ago
Rob Edwards and O'Neil are two of the early candidates under consideration to replace Vitor Pereira as manager of Wolves.
Pereira was dismissed on Sunday after the squad's ten-game winless start to the Premier League campaign.
And both candidates - both of who have previous links to the club - are part of the names to be considered by the Wolves leadership.
Edwards is presently at another club, which would create a possible hurdle to his hiring at Molineux.
Nevertheless the former Luton Town head coach - who played over a century of appearances for the club during his time as a player - is said to be a strong candidate for the position.
The mid-career manager is said to have backing from the Wolves directors as they begin the search of appointing a fresh manager.
Gary O'Neil is also emerging as a surprise candidate, even though he would be a surprising appointment given he was sacked by Wolves in the previous winter.
The ex- West Ham midfielder is currently unemployed which means Wolves would not need to provide any compensation.
