Wolverhampton Wanderers are keen to bring in a new centre-forward during the summer transfer window, but there could be competition from Leeds United.
Wolves and Edwards planning for life in the Championship
Jamie Carragher recently gave Rob Edwards a lot of credit for the job he's done at Wolves, with the Sky Sports pundit insisting they aren't the worst side in the Premier League, despite sitting bottom of the table for quite some time.
Carragher said: "I've been saying this for a few weeks now, they are not the worst team in the Premier League, they are not. I think almost every club playing Wolves now see the table and the talk of them a few weeks ago and the Derby record.
"They almost looked as if they were going to be one of the worst in Premier League history. I thought Liverpool going there and Villa, they would still win, but I don't think it is as easy as supporters think. They see the table, but they are a much tougher proposition now and a lot of that is down to him (Edwards)."

However, after making a terrible start to the campaign, relegation is almost inevitable, and the Old Gold have started planning for life in the Championship next season.
Wolves plotting move for "deadly" Championship striker
According to a report from Sports Boom, Wolves are plotting a move for Derby County striker Patrick Agyemang, who is regarded as a potential centrepiece signing, as they look to rebuild ahead of a second tier campaign next season.
Derby could command a fee in the region of £20m for the centre-forward, amid widespread interest from the Premier League, with Crystal Palace and Leeds United also in the race for his signature.
Edwards is looking to 'completely overhaul' his squad this summer, and the 25-year-old has emerged as a target, but it could be difficult to get a deal over the line, with Derby boss John Eustace saying: "He wants to play in the Premier League and he wants to play there with Derby and if not, he wants to go and play at the highest level and that’s my job as a head coach (to improve) players that we bring in and make them better players."
Lauded as "deadly" by journalist Leigh Curtis, the American is enjoying an impressive debut campaign in England, after arriving from MLS side Charlotte, contributing ten goals and four assists in 34 Championship games this season.
No player has chipped in with more goals and assists for Derby in the second tier than the USA international, and he is averaging 1.3 successful dribbles per 90, which is the highest number in the squad.
The former Charlotte man remains relatively inexperienced in England, which makes him a potentially risky signing, but Wolves already have Adam Armstrong, who's scored 91 Championship goals, on the books, and the duo could form a fantastic partnership next season.
