Edwards along with Gary O'Neil represent the early candidates under consideration to replace the former manager as manager of Wolves.

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

And Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have previous links to the team - are among the names to be considered by the club ownership.

The manager is presently at another club, which would create a potential hurdle to his appointment at Molineux.

Nevertheless the former Luton head coach - who played more than 100 of appearances for the club during his time as a player - is considered a leading contender for the position.

The mid-career manager is reportedly enjoys backing from the Wolves directors as they begin the search of hiring a new manager.

Gary O'Neil is also appearing as a unexpected contender, even though he would be a shock appointment considering he was sacked by the club in December last year.

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