Kieran Trippier is understood to be considering cancelling his contract with Wolves following the sacking of Rob Edwards yesterday.
The 35-year-old is reportedly angry and feels betrayed, with the manager’s presence said to be key to his decision to join the club last week.
Several players have reached out directly to Edwards, 43, to express their dismay at the decision.
Trippier cut short a holiday in Turkey to undergo a medical and sign for Wolves earlier this week.
The former England full back was viewed as an important signing by Edwards, who was eager to add the defender to his dressing room. As was Mexico’s Raul Jimenez, who re-signed for the club this week and scored in his country’s World Cup win over South Africa last night.
Trippier chose Wolves over a number of other clubs after being sold on the role Edwards foresaw for him.

The defender has essentially signed a pre-contract and is set to join Wolves on July 1 when his deal at Newcastle ends.
Trippier’s signing from Atletico Madrid in January 2022 was the catalyst for Newcastle’s resurgence under Eddie Howe as he helped set standards on the pitch and Edwards was looking for someone to help exert the same influence over his team, who finished bottom of the top flight.
As a result of Edwards’s departure, he is currently considering his options.
Before agreeing to join Wolves Trippier had Premier League interest and options abroad, including in Saudi Arabia.
