The next Manchester United manager odds market here at BetVictor has seen Mauricio Pochettino installed as the favourite to replace Michael Carrick.
Pochettino is available at 4/7 with numerous reports in the media suggesting Carrick will be relieved of his duties on November 10. The former Red Devils star has just one Premier League win to his name this season, and has overseen United’s worst ever start to a top-flight campaign since the league’s inauguration in 1992.
Carrick did see his side come back from 2-0 and 4-2 down to salvage a point with Aston Villa last time out. However, it’s expected that the club’s hierarchy are going to follow through with their plans and hand Carrick his P45 after a dismal run of form.
Next Manchester United Manager Odds: Mauricio Pochettino The Favourite For Old Trafford Gig
The next Manchester United manager odds market sees Mauricio Pochettino head the betting. The former Southampton, Tottenham and Chelsea boss has emerged as the frontrunner to succeed the struggling Michael Carrick.
Pochettino is currently in charge of the USMNT and BBC reports that the Argentine boss has a release clause of approximately £7.4million. Something of which United chiefs are happy to cough up but there is one slight catch.
The coaching staff of Pochettino’s – which includes trusted assistant Jesus Perez – are not included in said clause. It’s understood that Poch would not make the switch to Old Trafford unless his allies came with him but the Red Devils will negotiate with the US Soccer Federation to thrash out a deal. As it stands, Pochettino is nailed on at 4/7.
Eddie Howe In Contention To Replace Michael Carrick
Some may or may not be surprised to see Eddie Howe listed as the second favourite here at BetVictor. If truth be told, it would be a relatively sensible and cost effective appointment as Howe is unattached. After Newcastle’s pre-season loss to Bristol City in July, Howe sensationally quit St James’ Park and has been out of work since.
Elsewhere, Howe is also the second favourite in the next England manager odds market to replace Thomas Tuchel. It’s clear that the 48-year-old is very much in demand but whether he could salvage Manchester United’s season remains to be seen.
Nonetheless, football betting punters will be keeping a close eye on proceedings regarding Howe. Especially as United’s pulling power is second to none and they would have no problem matching his salary expectations. Furthermore, he would likely be well received by some supporters but perhaps not as much as Mauricio Pochettino.
Contenders For The Manchester United Job
The next Manchester United manager odds market – unsurprisingly – has a number of high-profile candidates in contention. Julian Nagelsmann is priced at 7/2, Antonio Conte 5/1 with Gareth Southgate at 8/1.
France legend Didier Deschamps offers decent value at 10/1 with Ipswich hero Kieran McKenna at 12/1. That is the same price as current Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler. The highly-rated German boss is expected to land a position at one of Europe’s biggest clubs after his Seagulls exploits.
