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

Pereira was sacked on Sunday following the team's ten-game winless start to the top-flight campaign.

And Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have previous associations to the club - are among the options to be evaluated by the Wolves leadership.

Edwards is currently at another club, which would create a potential hurdle to his appointment at Molineux.

However the ex- Luton head coach - who played more than 100 of appearances for the club during his playing career - is considered a leading contender for the vacancy.

The 42-year-old is reportedly enjoys backing from the Wolves directors as they start the search of appointing a new manager.

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

The former West Ham player is out of work meaning Wolves would not need to provide any compensation.
