Rob Edwards along with O'Neil represent the initial candidates under consideration to succeed Vitor Pereira as manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The previous coach was dismissed on Sunday following the squad's ten-game winless beginning to the top-flight season.
Furthermore both candidates - each of whom have previous links to the club - are part of the options to be considered by the Wolves leadership.
Edwards is presently at Middlesbrough, which would create a possible hurdle to his appointment at Wolves' stadium.
Nevertheless the ex- Luton Town manager - who played over a century of appearances for the club during his playing career - is considered a strong candidate for the vacancy.
The mid-career manager is reportedly enjoys backing from the Wolves board as they start the search of hiring a new head coach.
O'Neil is also emerging as a unexpected candidate, although he would be a shock choice given he was sacked by Wolves in December last year.
The former West Ham United player is currently unemployed which means Wolves would not be required to pay any compensation.
