ODDS SLASHED ON MAN UNITED’S NEXT MANAGER ๐จ After another terrible night for Erik ten Hag, the odds have changed dramatically. Two men now lead the way to replace him… ๐
Following Manchester Unitedโs 1-1 tie with FC Twente in the Europa League, betting companies have adjusted their odds on who might replace current manager Erik ten Hag, as pressure mounts on his position. Despite signing a new contract after his FA Cup victory, Ten Hag has come under fire for the team’s shaky start to the season, with only seven points from five Premier League matches and a lackluster European performance.
Christian Eriksenโs remark that Twente โshowed more desireโ has only added to the frustration among fans. While there has been no official comment from minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, rumors about Ten Hagโs future continue to circulate, with bookmakers offering odds on his potential successors.
According to Oddschecker, former England manager Gareth Southgate and current United coach Ruud van Nistelrooy are the frontrunners with odds of 4/1. Other contenders include Thomas Tuchel at 9/1, Kieran McKenna at 12/1, and Roberto De Zerbi at 20/1. Zinedine Zidane, out of a managerial role since 2021, is considered a longshot at 33/1.
Here are the latest odds for Ten Hagโs possible replacement:
– Gareth Southgate (Unemployed) โ 4/1
