Who are the other contenders?
Caretaker boss John Kennedy has shortened considerably with firms who pay out after 10 games in charge, with Sky Bet now showing 5/4.
That’s in stark comparison to the 11/8 being offered by Bet Victor and even the 15/8 on show at William Hill.
Roy Keane (16/1), Steve Clarke (25/1), Frank Lampard (28/1) and and Diego Martinez (33/1) follow next in the market.
oddschecker spokesperson Callum Wilson: “Just last week Sky Sports pundit Roy Keane was backed into odds-on favourite, but that steam has halted.
“Keane was backed into as short as 4/9 following reports he was being considered, but has since drifted all the way out to 16/1.
“At the time of writing, there have been more different favourites (8) for the Celtic job as the side has wins (7) in 2021.”
Celtic Manager Odds:
- Eddie Howe 11/10
- John Kennedy 15/8
- Roy Keane 16/1
- Enzo Maresca 20/1
- Steve Clarke 25/1
- Frank Lampard 28/1
