Rob Edwards along with O'Neil are two of the early names under consideration to replace the former manager as head coach of Wolves.

Pereira was sacked on Sunday after the squad's 10-match without a victory start to the top-flight season.

Furthermore both candidates - both of who have previous links to the club - are among the options to be considered by the Wolves leadership.

Edwards is presently at another club, which would pose a potential obstacle to his appointment at Molineux.

Nevertheless the former Luton Town head coach - who played more than 100 of games for Wolves during his playing career - 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 process of hiring a new manager.

Gary O'Neil is additionally appearing as a surprise candidate, although he would be a surprising choice given he was released by the club in December last year.

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