Edwards along with Gary O'Neil represent the early candidates in the frame to replace the former manager as manager of Wolves.

The previous coach was dismissed on the weekend after the team's ten-game winless start to the top-flight season.

Furthermore Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have previous links to the team - are part of the options to be evaluated by the Wolves leadership.

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

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

The 42-year-old is said to have backing from the club directors as they begin the process of appointing a new head coach.

O'Neil is additionally emerging as a unexpected candidate, although he would be a shock choice considering he was sacked by the club in the previous winter.

The ex- West Ham player is currently unemployed which means Wolves would not be required to provide any compensation.
