Edwards along with Gary O'Neil are two of the early candidates in the frame to replace the former manager as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Pereira was sacked on the weekend after the team's ten-game without a victory beginning to the Premier League season.

Furthermore both candidates - both of who have historic associations to the team - are among the options to be evaluated by the Wolves leadership.

Edwards is currently at Middlesbrough, which would pose a potential hurdle to his hiring at Wolves' stadium.

However the ex- Luton head coach - who made over a century of games for Wolves during his playing career - is said to be a leading contender for the position.

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

O'Neil is also appearing as a unexpected candidate, although he would be a surprising choice considering he was sacked by the club in December last year.

The ex- West Ham player is currently unemployed meaning the club would not need to provide any buyout fee.
