WOLVES CONFIRM ROB EDWARDS, HOPES RISE FOR GREAT ESCAPE
Wolves appoint former Luton boss Rob Edwards as new manager. The ex-Wolves defender returns on a 3.5-year deal to lead the struggling Premier League side, starting with a crucial match against Crystal Palace.

After a terrible start to the season, Wolves has confirmed the hiring of former Luton manager Rob Edwards, who will be entrusted with leading the team out of the Premier League table. The 42-year-old, who was selected to succeed Vitor Pereira as manager, has agreed to a three-and-a-half-year contract at Molineux.
Edwards rejoins the Wolves.
Last week, David Ornstein of The Athletic reported that Wolves and Middlesbrough had agreed on a compensation settlement for Edwards that was close to £2 million.
With his official confirmation as Wolves' new manager, Edwards, whose contract at Boro lasted until 2028, has rekindled his longstanding relationship with the team. Between 2004 and 2008, he made 111 appearances for the team as a centre-back.
In 2016, after Walter Zenga was fired, Edwards served as Wolves' temporary coach for two games. Following a 3-2 loss to Derby County and a 1-1 draw with Blackburn Rovers, Edwards remained as the team's first-team coach while Paul Lambert was hired as the new manager. Before joining 'Boro in June, Edwards enjoyed head coaching positions at Forest Green, Watford, and Luton.
Regarding Edwards' appointment, Wolves executive chairman Jeff Shi stated: "I know Rob very well and I have observed his growth in several jobs." In addition to being a very excellent player, he is also a really good person who knows the city, the club, and the supporters. He showed tactical understanding while working as a youth coach here, but he began to develop his own identity, character, and leadership after accepting first-team positions.
"Rob and his staff have shown in the past that they can be incredibly successful at transforming the culture, instilling confidence into players rapidly, and building foundations for a really positive future," said Matt Jackson, the club's director of player recruitment and development. He enjoys playing on the field, changing up a team, and adopting the strategies of various circumstances.
"We need to bring the energy he brings off the field onto the field. We must be honest about where we are, and accountability is unquestionably necessary. Rob will have a positive cultural impact on the entire football team; therefore, we need to instil that confidence in the players as soon as possible.
According to a report, Molineux Club is focused on the future.
The Athletic also claimed that by hiring Edwards, a former Watford manager, Wolves is looking to the future. The club is hopeful that Edwards can help them survive in the Premier League this season, but they also think that if they do not make it out of the Championship next season, his appointment will give them the best chance to be promoted.
Having led Luton Town to promotion to the Premier League in the 2022–2023 Championship play-offs, Edwards has experience in both leagues. Under Edwards' guidance, the Hatters were competitive in the top division, finishing in 18th place in 2023–24 with 26 points from 38 games, ultimately suffering relegation.
Additionally, Middlesbrough was doing well under his leadership. Despite the rumours surrounding his future, Edwards was benched for Saturday's 2-1 victory over Birmingham City, putting the Teessiders in second place in the Championship standings, just five points behind leaders Coventry City.
After the 2025–26 season got off to a bad start, Wolves resorted to Edwards. With nine losses and two draws in their 11 games this season, they are still the only team in England's top four divisions without a league victory. After a 3-0 loss against Fulham at the beginning of the month, Pereira's 10-month tenure at Molineux came to an end when he was fired.
On November 22, Wolves will play Crystal Palace in the league in Edwards' debut match as manager. The former Wales international will then play in a West Midlands derby when his new team visits Aston Villa on November 30. On Wednesday, December 3, and December 8, they will play at home against Nottingham Forest, another struggling team, and Manchester United, who are currently playing well.
EVERTON OFFER CONFIRMED:THE BLUES MONITORING JOSHUA ZIRKZEE TRANSFER SITUATION CLOSELY
Everton is targeting a January move for striker Joshua Zirkzee. The Man Utd forward, who had a trial with the Blues in 2017, is a top priority as David Moyes seeks a different profile of attacker.

Everton connected Joshua Zirkzee, who played for the Blues during their trial more than eight years ago, has already discussed the possibility of joining them. Everton is prioritising a new striker in January who has a different profile than current frontmen Thierno Barry and Beto, according to Rob Dorsett, football correspondent for Sky Sports News.
He claims that Zirkzee of Manchester United and Ivan Toney of Al-Ahli, both of whom play in the Saudi Pro League, are at the top of their list of potential targets should either become available. However, Gabriel Jesus of Arsenal appears to be out of reach after Mikel Arteta declared he would not be leaving.
The 24-year-old Zirkzee joined Manchester United from Bologna on July 14, 2024, but in 54 games for the Red Devils, he has only managed to score seven goals, with only three of those coming in 36 Premier League games.
However, the 6 4" youngster has long been a target for Everton, and he even wore the royal blue jersey during a Czech youth competition.
Zirkzee, a 16-year-old prodigy from Schiedam, was a prolific player at Feyenoord at the time after scoring 33 goals in 27 games for their minor team the season before.
Arsenal appeared to be interested in signing him because of his performance, but Ronald Koeman, the manager of Everton and the only person to have played for and coached both of the Dutch club football's "Big Three," was able to use his connections at the Rotterdam giants to get the player a trial with the Blues in July 2017.
After playing twice for Everton in the Generali CEE Cup in Prague, a deal was not reached, and later that year, Zirkzee transferred to Bayern Munich's junior academy.
"Everton was a genuine alternative for me, because Ronald Koeman was the manager of the first team and I did not have many strikers in front of me at that time," Zirkzee said to Dutch football journalist Arthur Renard after he had been with the Blues for a few years. "Everton gave me the impression that there was a strong possibility to come through there after Romelu Lukaku went to Manchester United that summer.
"They immediately offered me a contract when I was there."

Hannibal Mejbri of Burnley was accused of spitting during Leeds United's visit to Turf Moor last month, leading to his disciplinary charges.
The Football Association has punished Burnley player Hannibal Mejbri with misconduct after he reportedly spat at or toward Leeds fans last month.
The issue concerns an event that occurred in the 67th minute of the Clarets' October 18 2-0 Premier League victory over Leeds at Turf Moor.
At the time of the alleged event, Mejbri was one of the substitutes. After a collision with Leeds defender Gabriel Gudmundsson in the 83rd minute, he entered the game and was given a booking.
Hannibal Mejbri of Burnley has been charged with misconduct after their Premier League match against Leeds United on Saturday, October 18, according to an FA representative.
By spitting at or towards Leeds United supporters in the 67th minute, the player is accused of violating the Laws of the Game, acting improperly, and engaging in abusive and/or indecent behaviour.
"Hannibal Mejbri has until Friday, November 28, to deliver an answer," the FA statement continued.
Following a complaint from a fan in the away section, the visiting team was informed of the accusation, according to the Burnley Express last month. Leeds then forwarded the complaint to the police.
Lancashire Police told the Burnley Express over the weekend that they were collaborating with the Clarets to gather information about the purported incident. At the time, it was also confirmed that the FA was investigating the situation.
What has Scott Parker, the Burnley manager, said about the event before?
During the pre-Wolves press conference, Parker stated, "I am unable to comment on that." "I can not really comment on anything at this time because there is a live investigation going on around that."
