The news comes as a shock to fans and club officials alike, as Edwards was still in charge of the team just yesterday. In a further twist, the 49-year-old was also removed from his media duties, raising speculation about the true nature of the situation.

It is believed that Wolverhampton Wanderers have been tracking Edwards’ progress at Middlesbrough and have made contact with him in recent days. Despite this, Edwards had remained committed to his role at the Riverside Stadium, and his resignation or removal had not been anticipated.

Another fan, @Boydie23, added “What’s going on at the Riverside? We really need clarity ASAP!”
