Manchester United coaching candidates, odds after Ruben Amorim sacking: Oliver Glasner, Enzo Maresca, more

Enzo Maresca is the 2/1 favorite to replace Ruben Amorim at Manchester United following Amorim's dismissal after poor results and controversial comments.

  • On Monday, Manchester United sacked Ruben Amorim after a disappointing 14-month reign and Enzo Maresca has emerged as the early favourite at 2/1 to replace him.
  • After Sunday's tense draw at Leeds, Ruben Amorim, Head Coach, made explosive comments and warned against board interference at Old Trafford amid poor league finishes.
  • Initially, bookmakers favoured Darren Fletcher but William Hill noted the rumour mill after Amorim's exit, listing Gareth Southgate and Xavi Hernandez at 10/1, Zidane at 25/1, Klopp at 50/1, and Blanc at 8/1.
  • Darren Fletcher will take interim charge for Wednesday's match against Burnley, with Manchester United leadership appointing a caretaker until season's end to maximise Premier League finish.
  • Maresca's reported desire for recruitment control and a board fall-out mean Enzo Maresca, former Chelsea head coach, is linked but pundits argue he suits Manchester City better.
