Next Man United Manager Odds: Carrick favourite as market starts to close

Manchester United are on the lookout for a new manager after Ruben Amorim was dramatically sacked. Interviews continue as the club look to hire his replacement, and Michael Carrick is the leading favourite at betting sites.

Next Man United manager betting odds

Ruben Amorim was under significant pressure for months, but the timing of his departure was still surprising. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was the favourite at UK betting sites last week at 11/10, but he is now 19/4 to take charge of the Red Devils.

Michael Carrick is the leading favourite, with his odds as short at 1/8 to take the job. Reports are suggesting that Carrick will be announced as the interim manager until the end of the season.

Crystal Palace’s Oliver Glasner and Man Utd interim manager Darren Fletcher were leading favourites in the early next Man United manager betting odds, but they have now dropped down the betting.

Betting sites now have clear favourite for next Man United manager

Michael Carrick is now the leading favourite, with reports revealing that he has been interviewed by Man United. The club are interested in hiring him on an interim basis until the end of the season. Carrick was most recently in charge of Middlesbrough. He left the Championship side in the summer after 136 matches in charge and was battling for the playoffs during his tenure at the club. Carrick has been a caretaker manager at the Red Devils before and remained undefeated across the three matches he was in the dugout.

Oliver Glasner has worked wonders at Selhurst Park, winning Crystal Palace their first trophy since they finished top of the second tier in 1994. Glasner has been linked with a number of high-profile roles in recent months, and it appears increasingly likely that he’ll move on to a new challenge once his contract expires in the summer.

Others involved in the betting odds to become Manchester United’s next manager include Darren Fletcher, Thomas Tuchel and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. The latter has been interviewed for the job over the weekend.
