Mancini Now Odds On To Be Leicester Manager

Following the news that Claudio Ranieri had been sacked by Leicester City on Thursday evening, Roberto Mancini was installed as the 13/8 favourite to take over as the next permanent manager.

However, following a hoard of support for the former Manchester City manager, the Italian is now odds on at 8/11 to take over at the King Power Stadium.

Mancini’s nearest rival in the betting is Dutch native Frank De Boer at 8/1 with Nigel Pearson next in the betting at 9/1. Both Alan Pardew and Gus Hiddink are next in the betting at 10/1 with Gary Rowett priced at 14/1.

Current Irish manager Martin O’Neill can be backed at 18/1 whilst Northern Ireland manager Michael O’Neill is priced at 20/1 alongside Neil Lennon, Roberto Martinez, Roy Hodgson, Roberto Di Matteo and David Wagner.
