- Oliver Glasner and Gareth Southgate are joint 4/1 favourites to replace Ruben Amorim at Manchester United.
- Xavi Hernandez (5/1) and Michael Carrick (6/1) are also in the frame.

Southgate and Glasner Joint Favourites for Man United Job
The pressure continues to mount on Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim, with UK Betting Sites cutting odds on who could replace him at Old Trafford.
United’s shock exit to Grimsby Town in the second round of the Carabao Cup has put Amorim under intense scrutiny, and while an injury-time Bruno Fernandes winner against Burnley eased tension slightly, speculation over his future is growing.
BetVictor now make Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner the joint 4/1 favourite alongside former England boss Gareth Southgate in the latest betting market for United’s next permanent manager.
The latest odds give both Glasner and Southgate a 20% chance of being the next man in the Old Trafford hot seat.

Next Manchester United Manager Odds
| Next Manchester United Manager | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Oliver Glasner | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Gareth Southgate | 4/1 | 20.0% |

Glasner’s Stock Rising Fast
Oliver Glasner’s success at Crystal Palace has not gone unnoticed.
The Austrian guided Palace to FA Cup glory last season and has been praised for his tactical discipline and ability to maximise his squad’s strengths.
A move to Old Trafford would be a massive step up, but Glasner is increasingly being touted as a serious candidate, particularly if Amorim fails to turn things around quickly.
Gareth Southgate has been linked with the Man United job previously with the board rumoured to like him as a candidate before they appointed Amorim.
What the expert says...
Other Contenders: Xavi, Carrick, Nuno
Former Barcelona boss Xavi Hernandez is next in the betting at 5/1 and while his reputation dipped towards the end of his tenure at the Camp Nou, his experience at the very top of European football keeps him in the conversation.
Ex-United midfielder Michael Carrick sits at 6/1. The former Middlesbrough manager is seen as a potential long-term project appointment, having impressed with his coaching development in the Championship.
Meanwhile, Nuno Espirito Santo (7/1) is also an outsider in the betting after impressing as Nottingham Forest manager.
