The betting suggests there is one standout candidate to replace Gareth Southgate.
Gareth Southgate has been at the centre of a lot of criticism throughout the Euro 2024 tournament as his England side, stacked with talent, has failed to live up to expectations.
Having secured a win and two draws in the group stages, England faced Slovakia in the round of 16 where they relied on some last minute heroics from Jude Bellingham to keep them in the competition, stumbling their way to the quarter-finals.
With a trophy the minimum expectation for the tournament favourites, anything less would likely see Southgate depart from his role as England manager.
As discontent grows by the game, former Premier League manager Graham Potter's odds have been slashed for the job.
The 49-year-old manager's odds were cut from as long as 4/1 last week into as short as 4/6 currently (an implied chance of 60%).
Next England Manager Odds
| Manager | Best Odds | Implied Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Graham Potter | 5/4 | 44% |
| Mauricio Pochettino | 4/1 | 20% |

| Jurgen Klopp | 14/1 | 7% |
| Lee Carsley | 16/1 | 6% |
Who is the favourite to become the next England Manager?
Former Chelsea and Brighton manager, Graham Potter currently leads the betting at a best price of 5/4 at Bet Victor.
Interestingly, 24% of bets made through oddschecker on the Next England Manager Odds market this week have been on Potter.
Despite a challenging tenure at Chelsea that ended in early 2023, his dynamic and appealing style of football could be exactly what England needs to revitalize their game.
Second favourite is another former Chelsea coach in Mauricio Pochettino. He is a best price of 4/1 at bet365 but can be found as short as 7/4 elsewhere.
As the Argentine tactician seeks his next managerial role, the England job could present the perfect opportunity for him to mentor some of the world's best young players—a task he has proven adept at handling during his time at Tottenham and Chelsea.
The third favourite for the job is the current Newcaslte manager, Eddie Howe. He is a best price of 5/1 at Bet Victor.
Howe has been with Newcastle since November 2021, rescuing them from relegation before leading the Toon back into the Champions League in his first full season in charge.
In the 2023/24 season, his team finished strongly to secure 7th place, but missed out on European football next season due to Manchester United's surprise FA Cup final win.
Despite being linked to the England job for a long time now, Howe insists he is focused on the job at hand in Newcastle.
