Edwards along with O'Neil are two of the early names under consideration to succeed the former manager as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Pereira was dismissed on Sunday following the team's ten-game without a victory beginning to the Premier League campaign.

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

The manager is currently at another club, which would create a potential hurdle to his hiring at Wolves' stadium.

However the former Luton Town manager - who made more than 100 of games for Wolves during his time as a player - is said to be a strong candidate for the position.

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

O'Neil is also emerging as a surprise contender, although he would be a shock choice given he was released by the club in the previous winter.

The ex- West Ham player is currently unemployed meaning the club would not need to provide any compensation.
