Edwards as well as Gary O'Neil Among Wolves Head Coach Contenders
Edwards and O'Neil both have past connections with the club
- PublishedJust moments ago
Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil represent the initial candidates under consideration to replace the former manager as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Pereira was sacked on Sunday following the team's 10-match winless start to the top-flight campaign.
And both candidates - both of who have historic associations to the team - are among the names to be evaluated by the Wolves leadership.
Edwards is currently at another club, which would create a potential hurdle to his hiring at Molineux.
Nevertheless the former Luton Town manager - who played over a century of appearances for Wolves during his playing career - is considered a strong candidate for the vacancy.
The 42-year-old is said to have support from the club board as they start the search of appointing a new head coach.
O'Neil is additionally appearing as a surprise contender, even though he would be a shock appointment given he was sacked by Wolves in December last year.
The ex- West Ham United midfielder is out of work which means the club would not be required to provide any buyout fee.
