Wolves 'make Gary O'Neil sack decision' as three replacement options emerge
Wolves are preparing to sack Gary O'Neil and have already shortlisted three potential replacements, according to reports. The 41-year-old is under growing pressure to save his job, with the club languishing in the Premier League drop zone.
They have won just two games all season and were heavily beaten by fellow relegation rivals Everton on Wednesday night. It leaves O'Neil's position hanging by a thread, with his future said to be in serious doubt.
Wolves are now preparing to make a change, according to The Telegraph, but it remains to be seen if O'Neil will be sacked before Monday's game against West Ham.
It is said that club bosses are aware of the growing opposition to O'Neil from supporters and are considering their next move. A number of potential replacements have already been shortlisted, with Graham Potter the standout candidate.
The former Chelsea boss is said to have emerged as Wolves' top choice to succeed O'Neil in the dugout. However, there are said to be internal concerns over whether he would accept the job, given their status as relegation battlers.
Potter suggested that he would consider any offers when asked about his next move earlier this week, saying: "You are open to everything. At the same time, I am really enjoying this as well because it gives you another perspective."
David Moyes is mentioned as another option while Luton Town boss Rob Edwards is also thought to be among the contenders. However, he is reportedly thought of as an outsider with the Hatters struggling near the bottom of the Championship.
In any case, it seems clear that something needs to change at Wolves if they are to steer clear of the relegation zone and consolidate their place in the Premier League for another season.

O'Neil issued a defiant message when quizzed on his future after the defeat to Everton, saying: "I can only keep going until it changes. You won’t find someone more professional and hard-working than me. We’re getting ready for West Ham.
"I’m not hurting on a personal level, I’m more disappointed for the fans as I know how much it means to them. They give a lot of time and money to support the club.
"It’s not about me. Wolves need to stay in the Premier League regardless of whether it’s me, that’s all that matters. Monday’s game will feel huge.
"I don’t think about myself. For the team, the last two games have let us down but the next challenge comes quickly at West Ham."
