Graham Potter is odds on with almost all UK bookmakers to return to Brighton.
The big mover in the next Brighton manager odds market continues to be the club’s former boss, Graham Potter, out of work since a failed stint at Chelsea in the 2022/23 season.
When Roberto De Zerbi’s exit was first confirmed, the bulk of the bookmakers’ attention focused on the future of Ipswich’s double-promotion winning Kieran McKenna (now out of the Chelsea running but still a contender to return to Man United) and De Zerbi’s former assistant, Francesco Farioli. However, is Potter is now widely expected to return for a second spell at the Amex.
He was a 10/1 chance with some bookmakers on Thursday and remained 9/4 with Paddy Power as recently as yesterday before that price was slashed.

Graham Potter Brighton Odds
Graham Potter’s chances of making a return to Brighton range between 50% and 75% depending on which bookmaker you believe holds the best inside information.
Having joined the club in 2019, Potter transformed the club's style of play into a possession-based outfit before moving to Chelsea in September 2022.
His biggest rival in the market is Rusell Martin, who led Southampton back to the Premier League in Sunday’s Championship Playoff final against Leeds.
The Malmo coach Henrik Rydstrom is a surprise third favourite, while fourth in the betting is Liam Rosenior - overlooked by Norwich who have opted to hire Johannes Hoff Thorup.
