Ian Foster is the 6/4 favourite to take over at Portsmouth next
Former Pompey coach Ian Foster is the bookies favourite at 6/4 to be the next Portsmouth manager with reports stating he is a 'serious contender' for the job.
Foster is the current England U20's head coach and is rumoured to be interested in a return to Fratton Park after originally being brought into the club with Paul Cook back in 2015.
BetVictor have Foster as the favourite for the role with a 40% chance of doing so according to the latest betting odds with a move potentially on the cards.
| Next Portsmouth Manager | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Ian Foster | 6/4 | 40% |
| Liam Manning | 5/2 | 28.6% |
| Kevin Nolan | 6/1 | 14.3% |
| Grant McCann | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Michael Appleton | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Liam Manning is the second favourite in the market and remains fully in contention for the job after being favourite to take over just a few days ago.
As often happens with these manager markets though the odds can change on a daily basis and Manning is now the 5/2 second favourite.
Kevin Nolan a new entry into the betting market at 6/1
Former Notts County manager Kevin Nolan has become a new entry in the betting market at 6/1 to take over at Fratton Park.
Nolan is currently an assistant coach to David Moyes at West Ham and Moyes current position being under threat may mean that Nolan looks for other opportunities.
Pompey's search for a manager has now entered its 17th day after Danny Cowley was sacked from the management job earlier this month.
