Next Chelsea manager latest as Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou named among bookies' favourites

CELTIC boss Ange Postecoglou has been listed among the favourites by bookies for the vacant Chelsea job. 

The Stamford Bridge side are on the hunt for a new manager after dismissing Thomas Tuchel from his post this morning. 

New American owner Todd Boehly decided to wield the axe on the experienced German coach after their Champions League defeat to Dinamo Zagreb last night. 

We told you earlier today how former England international Danny Murphy had suggested Postecoglou as a potential replacement for Tuchel

Now, certain bookmakers are providing prices for the Australian to end up at the Bridge.

SkyBet currently have Postecoglou available at a price of 28/1.

Top of Chelsea's shortlist is reportedly Brighton gaffer Graham Potter. That is reflected by the bookies, with his odds as short as 1/5. 

Ex-Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is second favourite at 7/2. 

Out of work Zinedine Zidane is then out at 16/1, while under-fire Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers is available at 20s.

Diego Simeone, Jose Mourinho, Luis Enrique and Massimiliano Allegri are all priced at 25/1.

The likes of Eddie Howe, Jesse Marsch, Julen Lopetegui and Roberto Mancini all have larger prices than Postecoglou.
