Jose Mourinho's odds to be next Manchester United manager have been slashed to just 2/1 with BetVictor
Betting on who will be the next Manchester United manager has grown more and more popular in recent weeks with the club's inconsistent form coming into consideration.
Bookmakers continue to offer odds on who could replace Erik ten Hag as manager next and Jose Mourinho has now shortened into just 2/1 to take over next.
Mourinho is 2/1 with BetVictor to become the next United manager with his odds still as big as 25/1 at Paddy Power and he may well make a shock return to Old Trafford.
The Portuguese manager has spoken previously about his good relationship with United part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and that could see him taken into consideration if the club decide to part ways with ten Hag.
| Next Manchester United Manager | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Jose Mourinho | 2/1 | 33.3% |
| Graham Potter | 3/1 | 25.0% |
| Julen Lopetegui | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Unai Emery | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Thomas Tuchel | 8/1 | 11.1% |

Erik ten Hag under pressure after latest defeat to rivals Manchester City
Current Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is under increasing pressure after another defeat at the weekend saw his side reach 11 losses so far this season.
United were soundly beaten 3-1 by rivals City in the Manchester Derby despite ten Hag's side leading 1-0 thanks to a Marcus Rashford worldie.
City though had more shots than United had possession and this will have worried not just ten Hag but the United board too.
