Wolves want their new head coach, Rob Edwards, to help “refresh the whole club” after luring the former defender back for a fourth spell at Molineux, where he has signed a three-and-a-half year deal.

The 42-year-old replaces Vítor Pereira, who was sacked at the start of the month, taking over a team bottom of the Premier League with two points from 11 matches. Wolves paid Middlesbrough £3m to prise him away from the second-placed Championship club after less than five months and only 15 games.
