Wolves have finally appointed a new manager, Rob Edwards, on a three-and-a-half-year contract. The 42-year-old former defender's appointment is seen as a gamble by many, given his limited Premier League managerial experience and Middlesbrough's struggles under him.
Edwards' decision to leave Middlesbrough for Wolves has raised eyebrows, particularly considering the club's current plight in the Premier League. Wolves are winless in their opening 11 games of the season, with fans growing increasingly frustrated with the ownership and management.
The new manager is a fan favorite, having made over 100 appearances for the club between 2004 and 2008. Edwards has also grown up in nearby Telford and has family in the area, making his return to Wolves' roots an attractive prospect for him.
However, Edwards will face a monumental task in rescuing the team from relegation danger. The potential additions of former England Under-21 international Hayden Hackney to the squad could be crucial, but it remains to be seen whether they can turn the season around.
One thing is certain - Edwards' appointment marks a new chapter for Wolves, and only time will tell if he can unite the fractured club and steer them towards survival in the top flight.
