Neil Lennon sits at the top of the betting market at 6/4 to be the next Republic of Ireland Manager
Betting is open on the next Republic of Ireland manager with OLBG taking a closer look at the latest odds from UK Betting Sites on who will take over from Stephen Kenny next.
Next Republic of Ireland Manager | Odds | Probability |
---|---|---|
Neil Lennon | 6/4 | 40.0% |
Lee Carsley | 4/1 | 20.0% |
Steve Bruce | 9/2 | 18.2% |
Roy Keane | 9/1 | 10.0% |

Neil Lennon is currently the outright betting favourite at 6/4 to take over as the man who leads Republic of Ireland into their 2026 World Cup qualification campaign.
Ireland bosses will be looking to make sure that they make the right appointment and it may not be an immediate decision that is made.
Northern Irishman Lennon has a 40% chance of becoming the next manager of the Republic of Ireland according to the latest odds from Paddy Power.
What the expert says...
Neil Lennon is the early favourite to take over as Republic of Ireland manager with the latest odds suggesting a 40% chance that he is the next man in charge. Stephen Kenny is set to leave the job when his contract expires after the game against New Zealand.
Stephen Kenny is set to leave his role as manager when his contract expires
Stephen Kenny's contract is set to officially expire on Tuesday evening as soon as their end-of-season friendly against New Zealand finishes.
Kenny's contract would have continued until March if Ireland had managed to secure a play-off place through the Nations League to try and qualify for the Euros next summer.
Instead though Ireland have failed under Kenny and now have a wait until September next year to have another meaningful game with the return of the Nations League.
The Kenny era ends with a near full house at the Aviva and he will be hoping to end his spell in charge with a win to at least end on somewhat of a high.
