Online Bookmakers ListNext Leicester City Manager Betting News Diary Timeline
The betting odds for The Next Leicester Manager will often see some fluctuation and speculation of who will take over the hot seat when Brendan Rodgers departs the King Power.
Here is a round-up of the Next Leicester City Manager Betting Timeline from our OLBG News feed.
29th September 2022
Current Brentford manager Thomas Frank is the 13/8 favourite with betting sites to be the next Leicester manager. Frank is one of the most highly-rated managers in the league and his new contract signed in January will harm any chance of him going to Leicester.
Paddy Power though make the Dane the 13/8 favourite to take over from Brendan Rodgers when he eventually leaves his position.
16th September 2022
Sean Dyche is the bookies favourite to be the next Leicester Manager with Brendan Rodgers under increasing pressure. At odds of 2/1, bookmakers feel that Dyche has a 33% chance of taking over at the King Power Stadium next. Paddy Power have Mauricio Pochettino and Brentford manager Thomas Frank as the next two candidates in the market.
5th September 2022
Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers remains the bookmaker's favourite to be the next manager to be sacked in the Premier League after yet another Leicester loss.
Rodgers was 6/5 to leave last week but has now been backed into 1/3 to leave after Leicester's 5-2 thumping defeat against Brighton on Sunday.
BetVictor make Rodgers the favourite to be sacked with Steven Gerrard the second favourite in the Next Leicester City manager market at 6/1.
August 31st 2022
Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers is the bookmakers favourite to be the next manager to be sacked in the Premier League after the Foxes woes continue. Rodgers was odds on last week to go at 1/2 but after Scott Parker's dismissal, his odds have drifted slightly to odds against at 6/5. The Premier League table currently sees Leicester sitting rock bottom on 1 point and Rodgers will have to turn their fortunes around quickly if he wants to stay at the club.
22nd August 2022
Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers is now 1/2 to be the first Premier League manager to leave his role. This comes after Leicester's 2-1 loss to Southampton at the weekend which caused bookmakers to make him favourite to leave. Ladbrokes have him as favourite to go with Frank Lampard 11/2 second favourite in the betting market.
Leicester City Manager Contenders
Sean Dyche
The former Burnley manager ( October 2012 - April 2022) is regularly quoted by the bookmakers in their next manager markets. It is understandable after he performed so well in getting the Clarets promoted and keeping them in the EPL.
His pragmatic style of football would go down well with Chairman looking to keep their club in a league or looking to build a side to compete for honours.

Thomas Frank
Danish-born Thomas Frank has been at Brentford since October 2018.
He secured the Bees promotion to the English Premier League in the 2020/21 season.
His use of a 3-5-2 formation means they exploit space wide on the pitch with the 2 often coming centrally deeper, with the opponents centre backs following them, this then allows space behind.
Ivan Toney the main striker can often be found linking play just inside the opposition's half, before making his way back into the box, similar to Harry Kane at Tottenham.
Brentford held their own in their first season in the top tier, they finished in a creditable 13th place.

Mauricio Pochettino
The Argentinian's career has spanned 4 clubs since he first took charge of Spanish club Espanyol in 2009.
Two spells in England at Southampton and Tottenham culminated in Pochettino taking charge of one of the giants of European football Paris Saint Germain, a club he played for.
Whilst in Paris he won the Ligue 1 title but could not secure the Champions League for the ambitious owners Qatar Sports Investments.
In July 2022 he was dismissed.
The problem for Pochettino is that after PSG most clubs could be seen as a downward step, many chairmen may consider him "out of their league"

Leicester City Manager - Brendan Rodgers
- Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers is looking to emulate the 2015/16 winning side but is currently finding that task very difficult.
- Since he took over in February 2019 the Foxes have finished 5th twice, however, the 2021/22 season did not go to plan with them ending up in 8th.
Brendan Rodgers Leicester City Record
Brendan Rodgers in January 2023 has a 46% win-strike rate at the club.
Leicester City - A Fans Point Of View
October 2022
I still believe that changing the manager is not the way forward as that would not solve all of the issues.
They have engaged Robert Huth as "loans manager" or words to that effect; is it simply a coincidence that Leicester has kept clean sheets in 2 of the last 3 matches?
14 pts from winning positions after just 9 games would equate to around 57 for the season, that is obviously impossible but it means the problems are later in games rather than the poor starts that were so expensive over the past two seasons.
Getting a world-class manager at this stage would be difficult and getting a "wannabe" from a lower league would not fit the aspirations of the owners.
Thomas Frank would be the obvious choice if Unai Emery could not be persuaded, but it is not the case of Rodgers "losing the dressing room" - something that would be easier to fix.
Defeat to Leeds would not help his cause, but hovering around the drop zone till Xmas with a clear view of transfer business in January or the summer MAY buy him sufficient time.
Remember, the nucleus of the Leicester team is now based on much younger, far less experienced players, than in recent seasons.

There is much discussion among Leicester fans as to whether or not there should be a managerial change.
The two main talking points are:
- Overall, was it a satisfactory season?
- The shocking record defending set pieces, particularly corners.
On the first point, the long injury list meant wholesale changes to the backline. In turn, this led to panic signings. One was then sidelined and the other didn’t perform as well as some would have expected. Contrary to many clubs, a European trophy was targeted ahead of a possibly higher finish in the league.
Whatever policies were in place, and with whatever players filled the positions, the set-piece problems would not go away.
Evans and Fofana were the preferred option, but an injury to Fofana in a pre-season ‘friendly’ put paid to that and he was only available for the last few games.
With Vardy, Ndidi, and to a lesser extent Maddison also missing for periods due to injury, a top 4 spot was never really likely. Various postponements caused a cramped end-of-season backlog, so something had to be given priority.
Whether it was a coaching problem, or a player problem, Leicester’s defending of corners became a national joke. Could a new manager overcome these issues, and if so, who?
The lack of European football next season gives Leicester the chance to push for the top 4 again but attracting a top manager while not having European involvement would not be easy.
A good transfer window is required for whoever is in charge.
Rodgers has led Leicester to their first F A Cup win, their second Community Shield, and their first European semi-final.
Maybe a defence-minded coach could rectify the second point, but that may produce a style of play unfamiliar to the players and unpopular with the fans.
My personal view is that it would be better to keep the manager and tweak the squad (again more difficult out of Europe), but it is a relatively young squad that can improve.
A team can be built around a sound nucleus of talent; their progress may be stalled by having to change their methods under a new manager.
Of the managers who may relish such a task, Potter, Lage, Frank, Dyche, and even Dean Smith would seem the most likely with Premier League experience, there are some European options but anyone from a lower league would seem a retrograde step.
