The manager is presently at another club, which would pose a possible hurdle to his hiring at Molineux.

However the former Luton Town head coach - who played over a century of games for Wolves during his playing career - is considered a leading contender for the position.

The mid-career manager is reportedly enjoys backing from the Wolves board as they start the search of appointing a new head coach.

O'Neil is additionally appearing as a surprise contender, although he would be a shock choice considering he was released by Wolves in the previous winter.

The former West Ham United player is out of work which means Wolves would not need to pay any buyout fee.
