Edwards and Gary O'Neil are two of the initial names under consideration to succeed the former manager as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Pereira was dismissed on the weekend after the squad's ten-game without a victory start to the Premier League campaign.

And both candidates - both of who have historic links to the club - are among the names to be evaluated by the Wolves leadership.

Edwards is presently at Middlesbrough, which would create a possible hurdle to his appointment at Molineux.

Nevertheless the former Luton Town head coach - who played more than 100 of appearances for Wolves during his playing career - is considered a leading contender for the position.

The 42-year-old is reportedly enjoys backing from the Wolves directors as they start the process of hiring a new head coach.

O'Neil is also emerging as a surprise candidate, even though he would be a surprising choice considering he was released by the club in the previous winter.

The former West Ham player is out of work meaning Wolves would not need to pay any buyout fee.
