Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil represent the early names under consideration to replace the former manager as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

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

And both candidates - each of whom have previous links to the club - are part of the names to be evaluated by the club ownership.

The manager is presently at another club, which would pose a possible hurdle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.

Nevertheless the former Luton Town manager - who made more than 100 of appearances for the club during his playing career - is said to be a strong contender for the position.

The mid-career manager is said to have support from the club directors as they begin the process of appointing a fresh manager.

O'Neil is additionally emerging as a unexpected candidate, although he would be a shock appointment considering he was sacked by the club in the previous winter.

The ex- West Ham United player is out of work meaning Wolves would not need to pay any compensation.
