Rob Edwards along with Gary O'Neil are two of the early names under consideration to replace Vitor Pereira as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The previous coach was dismissed on the weekend after the squad's ten-game winless start to the top-flight season.
And Edwards and O'Neil - each of whom have previous associations to the club - are part of the names to be evaluated by the club leadership.
Edwards is presently at another club, which would pose a potential hurdle to his appointment at Molineux.
Nevertheless the former Luton Town head coach - who made more than 100 of appearances for Wolves during his time as a player - is said to be a leading contender for the vacancy.
The 42-year-old is said to have support from the club board as they start the search of hiring a new head coach.
O'Neil is additionally emerging as a surprise contender, although he would be a surprising choice considering he was sacked by Wolves in December last year.
The former West Ham United midfielder is out of work which means Wolves would not be required to pay any compensation.
