Edwards is presently at Middlesbrough, which would pose a possible hurdle to his hiring at Molineux.

However the former Luton Town head coach - who made over a century of games for the club during his time as a player - is considered a strong contender for the position.

The mid-career manager is reportedly enjoys support from the Wolves directors as they start the search of appointing a new head coach.

Gary O'Neil is additionally appearing as a unexpected candidate, even though he would be a surprising choice given he was released by Wolves in the previous winter.
