Edwards is presently at Middlesbrough, which would create a potential hurdle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.

Nevertheless the former Luton Town head coach - who played over a century of games for the club during his time as a player - is considered a leading candidate for the vacancy.

The 42-year-old is reportedly enjoys backing from the club directors as they begin the search of hiring a new head coach.
