🔗 Share this article Edwards and Gary O'Neil Included in Wolves Managerial Candidates Edwards and O'Neil both have past links with Wolves Published8 minutes ago Rob Edwards along with O'Neil are two of the early names under consideration to succeed Vitor Pereira as manager of Wolves. The previous coach was dismissed on the weekend after the team's 10-match winless beginning to the top-flight season. Furthermore Edwards and O'Neil - each of whom have previous associations to the club - are among the options to be considered by the Wolves ownership. The manager is currently at Middlesbrough, which would create a possible obstacle to his hiring at Wolves' stadium. However the former Luton Town manager - who played over a century of games for Wolves during his playing career - is said to be a strong candidate for the position. The mid-career manager is said to have backing from the club board as they begin the process of appointing a new manager. Gary O'Neil is also appearing as a unexpected candidate, even though he would be a shock appointment considering he was sacked by Wolves in the previous winter. The ex- West Ham player is out of work which means Wolves would not be required to provide any buyout fee.
