Rob Edwards along with O'Neil are two of the initial names in the frame to replace the former manager as head coach of Wolves.

The previous coach was dismissed on Sunday after the team's ten-game winless start to the top-flight campaign.

Furthermore Edwards and O'Neil - each of whom have previous links to the club - are among the names to be evaluated by the Wolves ownership.

The manager is currently at Middlesbrough, which would create a possible hurdle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.

Nevertheless the former Luton manager - who made over a century of appearances for the club during his time as a player - is considered a strong contender for the position.

The mid-career manager is said to have support from the Wolves board as they start the process of appointing a fresh head coach.

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

The ex- West Ham United midfielder is out of work meaning Wolves would not be required to provide any compensation.
