Monday 22 December 2008 at 12:41
Manchester City manager Mark Hughes is under so much pressure at his club that the bookies have already started betting on who will replace him as the Next Man City Manager.
Jose Mourinho Favourite For Manchester City Job
The favourite to replace Hughes is the most sought after manager in the world, Jose Mourinho, he is 4/1 with SkyBet to be the Next Manchester City Manager. Mourinho is currently top of Serie A with Inter Milan but it is no secret he wants to return to the Premiership one day and building Manchester City into a Champions League outfit is likely to appeal to the Portuguese maestro.
Rijkaard's Record Makes Him Favourable Appointment
The second favourite is ex Barcelona manager Frank Rijkaard who is 5/1 with SkyBet. Manchester City want to bring the biggest and best players in the world to Eastlands and Rijkaard has a proven record of managing the top players as he was Barcelona manager for a number of years, winning the Champions League in that time.
Mancini And Klinsmann On The Radar
Roberto Mancini, who has been linked with every job under the sun since leaving Inter Milan (even QPR!) is also 5/1 with SkyBet. Other big names on the shortlist include Jurgen Klinsmann who is 20/1 with SkyBet and Martin Jol who is 40/1 with SkyBet.
Sven To Return As City Boss?
To find out the odds on a Sven Goran Eriksson comeback or Alan Shearer taking the job and to see who else is being linked with the job visit the SkyBet website. The Next ManCity Manager market can be found under Football, Speciality Markets and then Manager Specials
