- Mauricio Pochettino now 7/2 favourite to return to Tottenham amid growing reports of Postecoglou’s summer exit.
- Marco Silva (4/1) and Xavi Hernandez (11/2) follow in the betting.
- Ange Postecoglou remains priced at 8/1 to stay on, but his future appears uncertain.
Pochettino Linked With Shock Return as Spurs Look Ahead
The race for the next Tottenham Hotspur manager has taken a dramatic twist with Mauricio Pochettino emerging as the 7/2 favourite to make a sensational return to North London.
The former Spurs boss, now in charge of the US Men’s National Team, has reportedly attracted interest from the Spurs board with multiple sources suggesting Ange Postecoglou will leave regardless of how the season ends.
Pochettino managed Tottenham from 2014 to 2019, leading them to a Champions League final and consistent top-four finishes.
A return would mark a major U-turn in club strategy and punters have responded, backing him in from double figures to his current shortest price yet with Bet365.

What the expert says...
Marco Silva, Xavi Also in the Frame
Marco Silva (4/1) is reportedly admired for his work at Fulham and his ability to develop players on a limited budget.
Xavi Hernandez (11/2) is another high-profile name in the mix though there are doubts about whether he would take a Premier League job.
Andoni Iraola (6/1) and Thomas Frank (7/1) both offer Premier League familiarity, with tactical flexibility and overachievement at their current clubs making them attractive options in another transitional phase for Spurs.
Next Tottenham Manager Betting Odds
Will Postecoglou Stay or Go?
While Ange Postecoglou is still priced at 8/1 to remain in charge next season, reports suggest his relationship with key decision-makers may have soured, and that a summer exit is increasingly likely.
Despite showing glimpses of progress, Spurs' inconsistency and philosophical clashes off the pitch appear to have opened the door for a change.
The Telegraph last week reported that Postecoglou will leave even if his team win the Europa League this season.
