Who will be Manchester United’s next manager?

Erik ten Hag’s future at Old Trafford has been called into question for some time now and a 1-1 draw with Brentford over the weekend did the Dutchman no favours.

Man United are 6th in the Premier League and 11 points off the Champions League places, albeit with a game in hand on the two sides above them.

Regardless, the Red Devils are likely to miss out on the top-four this term, which will no doubt increase the pressure on Ten Hag.

Betfair spokesperson Sam Rosbottom said: “Odds on Julian Nagelsmann to become the next Manchester United manager have been slashed to 9/1 from 25/1 with Erik ten Hag’s Old Trafford future uncertain.

“Gareth Southgate remains the 5/2 frontrunner to take over at the Theatre of Dreams, with Graham Potter the 4/1 second-favourite. Elsewhere, former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is 10/1 to take the job, while Zinedine Zidane, 12/1, and Thomas Frank, 14/1, are amongst the outsiders.”
