Middlesbrough head coach Rob Edwards has been stood down from taking charge of Saturday's Championship game against Birmingham amid continued interest from Wolves over their vacant managerial position.
Edwards did not take Boro training on Friday and a press conference to preview the Riverside clash against Chris Davies' side was cancelled.
Boro had rejected an approach from Wolves on Thursday seeking permission to speak to the former Luton boss, but with increased scrutiny on his position, the club have opted to remove him from his matchday duties.
