Southgate you're the one? Gareth hugely backed for Man Utd job

Three Lions boss in overnight from 40/1 to 7/1.

Gareth Southgate has repaired his reputation with his role as England manager and it could lead him all the way to the Old Trafford dugout. 

Multiple reports have stated that Man Utd are considering a move for the England manager, and his odds have plummeted from 40/1 at the start of the weekend to just 7/1 in places. 

He is a best price of 10/1 to be in charge for the first day of next season, and the potential move has caught the imagination of punters.

In the last 24 hours, a huge 92% of bets have been put on Southgate to join the Red Devils, and he has been by far the biggest market mover this weekend. 

Currently the fifth-favourite in the betting, he is only behind Mauricio Pochettino (15/8), temporary boss Ole Solskjaer (2/1), Zinedine Zidane (8/1) and Massimiliano Allegri (10/1). 

Oddschecker spokesman George Elek: “It would only take the biggest of clubs to potentially lure away Gareth Southgate from his England role right now but the Three Lions boss has never had his stock so high. It would be United’s first English boss since Ron Atkinson in 1981 and one of the biggest stories of the year.”
