Leicester's next manager could be announced soon as a surprising name has emerged as odds on favourite for the job.
Despite a fantastic first season in charge of Leicester, former assistant to Pep Guardiola, Maresca departed to join league rivals Chelsea.
The 44-year-old Italian lead Leicester back to the Premier League after just one season in the English second flight before being poached as Mauricio Pochettino's replacement at Stamford Bridge.
Since then, the Foxes have been linked with a number of names such as Van Nistelrooy (click here to read more), David Moyes and most recently Carlos Corberan.
However, there has yet to be a odds on favourite until Steve Cooper's odds were slashed from as long as 5/1 yesterday to as short as 10/11 today.
The former Nottingham Forest manager can be found at a best price of 6/4 at Bet Victor to be the next Leicester City manager.

Who is the Favourite to be the Next Leicester Manager?
Steve Cooper is currently 10/11 (worst price) favourite but can still be found at a best price of 6/4 at Bet Victor.
The Englishman was sacked by Forest in December and is rumoured to have turned down a chance to take over at Burnley as he eyes a return to the Premier League.
He has been out of work since then but perhaps this might have been the opportunity he was waiting for.
He looks a prime candidate to try and keep the Foxes out the relegation zone next season so long as Leicester fans can forget his former allegiance to their fierce local rivals, Nottingham Forest.
Carlos Corberan appears to be a name that won't go away in this market as the West Brom man continues to be at the top of the betting.
He is a best price of 5/1 at Sky Bet to be the next Leicester manager.
Corboran had an impressive debut season at West Brom, assuming the reins in October 2022 when the team was second from the bottom and steering them to a commendable 9th place finish. In his second season, the Spanish manager led the Baggies to the play-offs, where they were defeated by the ultimate champions, Southampton.
