Wolves play West Ham in the Premier League on Monday, December 9.
Gary O’Neil has said that no conversations have taken place with Wolves hierarchy over his future.
The 41-year-old took the pre-match press conference for the game against West Ham on Monday, less than 24-hours after the 4-0 defeat to Everton. He said that no discussions had taken place with sporting director Matt Hobbs or chairman Jeff Shi regarding his position at Molineux.

Wolves’ plans are to keep O’Neil in position for the game against the Hammers on Monday according to talkSPORT. The fact that O’Neil took his pre-match press conference as normal perhaps hints at that.
Players are due to take a day off on Friday, but will train over the weekend in the build-up to their next match. Wolves find themselves second from bottom following their latest round of results.
“I can only keep going until it changes,” said O’Neil when addressing his future to the BBC.
“I took training this morning. You won’t find someone more professional and hard-working than me, we’re getting ready for West Ham.”

"The criticism is part and parcel. Maybe two weeks ago at Fulham [when we] scored four away everyone was happy to take the plaudits, but when it doesn't go well you need to stand up. My mentality won't change, I'll always front up."

It was reported by the Express & Star earlier today that the club had began sounding out possible options. Graham Potter was identified as their number one choice, but he instead could be in the opposition dugout when the two sides meet.
Football Insider is reporting that Potter is poised to be the next manager of the Hammers with Julen Loptegui set to be sacked. The former Chelsea boss is in 'advanced talks' and Lopetegui is expected to be sacked in the next 24-hours.
The two parties are close to securing an agreement and Potter could be named before the two sides meet at the London Stadium on Monday, December 9. Potter was present at West Ham’s defeat to Leicester City in midweek and should the move go through, then he’ll take his first job since his sacking at Chelsea 20 months ago.
