Edwards’ position at Middlesbrough, given his current job, would present some hurdles, with Boro believed to be entitled to a significant compensation fee.
Edwards is a former Wolves Under-23s coach and was also a first-team coach, having taken charge as caretaker for two matches in 2016, and has distanced himself from the role.
“My daughter told me yesterday [Sunday]“So maybe that tells you where I stand on it,” he said.
He added: “You know my connections with the club, but my full focus is on this job here, which is a great job, and trying to turn things around since the weekend in a really big game against Leicester.”
“It’s difficult for me to comment on speculation matters, anything other than Middlesbrough, which is where my focus is, as we’ve done well so far.”
Wolves have a history of appointing managers with close links to top agent Jorge Mendes, in Nuno Espirito Santo, Bruno Lage and Pereira.
It is understood that as well as O’Neill, Wolves have been speaking to at least one manager from Mendes’ squad.
O’Neill was sacked by Wolves in December 2024 after a disappointing start to the 2024-25 season, in which he failed to win in his first 10 matches.
