Rob Edwards and O'Neil represent the early candidates in the frame to replace the former manager as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The previous coach was dismissed on the weekend after the squad's 10-match winless beginning to the top-flight season.

And Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have previous links to the team - are part of the options to be considered by the Wolves ownership.

The manager is presently at another club, which would create a potential hurdle to his hiring at Molineux.

However the former Luton head coach - who made over a century of games for the club during his time as a player - is considered a strong candidate for the position.

The mid-career manager is said to have backing from the Wolves board as they begin the search of appointing a fresh head coach.

Gary O'Neil is additionally emerging as a unexpected contender, although he would be a surprising choice considering he was released by the club in the previous winter.

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