Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil represent the early names in the frame to succeed Vitor Pereira as head coach of Wolves.
Pereira was sacked on Sunday following the team's ten-game winless start to the top-flight campaign.
Furthermore Edwards and O'Neil - each of whom have previous links to the club - are among the options to be evaluated by the club ownership.
The manager is presently at Middlesbrough, which would pose a possible hurdle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.
Nevertheless the former Luton manager - who played more than 100 of games for Wolves during his time as a player - is considered a strong candidate for the vacancy.
The mid-career manager is reportedly enjoys backing from the Wolves directors as they start the process of appointing a new manager.
O'Neil is also emerging as a surprise contender, even though he would be a surprising choice given he was sacked by the club in December last year.
The ex- West Ham midfielder is out of work which means the club would not need to provide any buyout fee.
