Best Betting Site for Next Aston Villa Manager Betting

There is a huge range of UK Bookmakers to choose from but only very few that offer next-manager betting, if at all - As we have covered every club management change over the seasons, looking for betting odds on who the next club manager will be, we have found the following betting sites to be the most reliable and quickest to get odds up for the next manager at most clubs

Who Will be The Next Aston Villa manager

A list of the potential candidates should the Aston Villa job become available today based on previous people appearing in the betting odds when the position was vacant last time, to others with a profile that would fit the club in terms of the managers they have appointed most recently.

Kjetil Knutsen

Here we have another manager regularly linked to English football; when Brighton was looking for a new boss after Graham Potter went to Chelsea, Knutsen was for a time favourite for the job. He is currently the manager of Norwegian side FK/Bodo Glimt, who have punched above their weight, winning back-to-back League titles. His growing reputation will likely see him manage a British team in this decade. 

Paulo Fonseca

At some stage, Fonseca will arrive in English football; he has been linked to several vacancies in the EPL and EFL. He is currently at French club Lille which he joined after spells at Braga in Portugal, Shakhtar Donetsk in Ukraine, and Roma in Italy. 


Thomas Frank

Danish-born Thomas Frank has been at Brentford since October 2018. He secured the Bees promotion to the English Premier League in the 2020/21 season. Brentford have more than  held their own in their EPL under the leadership of Frank. 

Graham Potter

Born in Solihull, home to many Aston Villa fans, Potter will surely be on the board's radar when a vacancy arises. The former Brighton and Chelsea boss looks like a possible Villa manager in waiting. 

John Terry


John Terry is well known to the board having spent time at Villa at the end of his playing career and during the Dean Smith years. 

He is currently back at his spiritual home of Stamford Bridge in a coaching consultancy role. 

Thomas Tuchel

Thomas Tuchel has managed five clubs, most recently Bayern Munich and Chelsea. At those two clubs, his reputation took a knock, and both positions were curtailed early due to poor results. 

However, those dismissals did not deter the Football Association, which named the 51-year-old German as the next manager of the England National team. 

Roberto Mancini

Roberto Mancini has had a stellar football career as a player and manager.

After managing seven clubs, including Inter Milan and Manchester City, he took over the Italian National side and, subsequently, the Saudi Arabian National side.

Roberto Martinez

Aston Villa looks like a good fit for the likeable Roberto Martinez when Unai Emery moves on or is moved on.

The Spanish-born Martinez is currently in charge of the Portuguese national side after a full managerial career, during which Swansea, Wigan Athletic, Everton, and the Belgian national side have all called on his services.
