Edwards and Gary O'Neil represent the initial candidates in the frame to replace the former manager as manager of Wolves.

Pereira was sacked on Sunday following the squad's ten-game without a victory beginning to the Premier League campaign.

Furthermore Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have historic associations to the team - are among the options to be evaluated by the club ownership.

Edwards is currently at Middlesbrough, which would pose a possible hurdle to his appointment at Molineux.

However the ex- Luton Town manager - who played over a century of games for the club during his time as a player - is said to be a strong candidate for the position.

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

Gary O'Neil is also emerging as a surprise contender, although he would be a shock choice given he was released by the club in December last year.

The ex- West Ham United midfielder is currently unemployed which means Wolves would not need to pay any buyout fee.
