Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil are two of the early candidates in the frame to succeed Vitor Pereira as manager of Wolves.
The previous coach was sacked on Sunday after the squad's 10-match winless start to the top-flight campaign.
And Edwards and O'Neil - each of whom have previous links to the club - are part of the names to be considered by the Wolves ownership.
The manager is currently at Middlesbrough, which would create a potential obstacle to his appointment at Molineux.
However the ex- Luton Town manager - who played more than 100 of appearances for the club during his playing career - is said to be a leading contender for the position.
The mid-career manager is said to have support from the club board as they begin the search of hiring a fresh manager.
O'Neil is additionally appearing as a surprise contender, even though he would be a shock choice considering he was released by the club in December last year.
The ex- West Ham player is out of work meaning Wolves would not be required to provide any compensation.
