Mauricio Pochettino is the 6/4 favourite to take over as the next Chelsea manager according to bookies
Bookmakers are giving odds on who will be the next Chelsea manager with Graham Potter still seemingly under pressure in the role at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues recent 2-2 draw at home to Everton continued to raise question marks over Potter's management with his side still sat in 10th place in the Premier League this season.
Mauricio Pochettino is the favourite with Paddy Power to replace Potter if Chelsea decided to pull the trigger on his role at the top of the club with the former Spurs boss without a job since leaving PSG last Summer.
The current odds of 6/4 for Pochettino to take over gives an implied probability that the Argentinian takes over at Chelsea at 40%.
| Next Chelsea Manager | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Mauricio Pochettino | 6/4 | 40.0% |
| Zinedine Zidane | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Jose Mourinho | 17/2 | 10.5% |
| Oliver Glasner | 17/2 | 10.5% |
Zinedine Zidane is second favourite at 5/1 to take over at Stamford Bridge
Former Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane is second favourite in the betting market to be the next Chelsea manager with his odds at just 5/1.
Spanish publication Sport reported that Zidane would be in the running for the Chelsea job if Potter was to leave in the near future.
They also link him with taking over the Brazil national team along with Luis Enrique, who is also linked with Chelsea but is 9/1 for the Blues job.

Chelsea now 7/1 to finish in the Top 6 in the Premier League this season
After Chelsea's 2-2 draw at home to relegation-threatened Everton at the weekend the Blues are now out to 7/1 to finish in the Top 6 this season.
Chelsea currently sit in 10th place in the Premier League table and are 4 points behind Liverpool in 6th place.
With odds of 50/1 to finish in the Top 4 this season it looks extremely unlikely that they'll be in the Champions League again next season.
A Quarter-Final tie against Real Madrid awaits them in this year's Champions League with their odds to win the competition now at 12/1.
