Rob Edwards and O'Neil are two of the early candidates in the frame to succeed Vitor Pereira as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Pereira was sacked on the weekend after the team's 10-match winless beginning to the top-flight season.
And Edwards and O'Neil - both of who have historic links to the club - are part of the options to be considered by the Wolves leadership.
The manager is presently at another club, which would create a potential hurdle to his hiring at Molineux.
Nevertheless the former Luton Town manager - who played more than 100 of appearances for the club during his time as a player - is said to be a leading candidate for the position.
The 42-year-old is reportedly enjoys backing from the Wolves directors as they begin the process of hiring a new manager.
O'Neil is also appearing as a surprise contender, even though he would be a surprising appointment given he was released by Wolves in the previous winter.
The ex- West Ham United midfielder is out of work which means Wolves would not be required to pay any buyout fee.
