Next Tottenham Manager Odds: Glasner Leads Way To Replace Under-Fire Frank
The pressure continues to mount on Thomas Frank after Tottenham were booed off the pitch following their FA Cup exit at the hands of Aston Villa over the weekend.
Spurs are out of both cup competitions and struggling in 14th place in the Premier League on the back of just one win in their last six games.
A market has opened on some betting sites about some of the high-profile managers that could take the reins if the Dane gets the sack.
Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner is the favourite for the job, but there is very little to separate the leading candidates in the next Tottenham manager betting odds.
The Austrian has done a fantastic job at Crystal Palace, but he remains unhappy about the board's failure to invest in the squad over the summer and they paid the price with a shock FA Cup defeat by sixth-tier side Macclesfield.
Will Spurs make a move for Glasner or will the owners look elsewhere if Frank is shown the door?

Glasner A Good Fit
Glasner’s stock has never been higher after transforming Crystal Palace into FA Cup winners and delivering the club’s first-ever major trophy with a 1-0 win over Manchester City at Wembley.
Although Glasner admitted Saturday's defeat by the National League North side was "embarrassing", his reputation remains intact.
His track record of improving clubs – from LASK to Eintracht Frankfurt and now Palace – will appeal to the Spurs hierarchy.
The Austrian could be looking for a way out after launching a thinly-veiled attack on the club's summer recruitment, and may feel he has brought Palace as far as he can.
At the end of November, he told Match of the Day: "If you play European football for the first time in your history, you should invest and not save. I think January is too late. We will have played more than 50% of our games."
Glasner is the 4/1 favourite for the Tottenham job, but he is facing competition from several other top-class managers.

Silva To Step In At Spurs?
Marco Silva has established Fulham as a competitive Premier League side after years of yo-yoing between the top two divisions.
The Portuguese coach, out of contract at Craven Cottage next year, has delivered attractive football while showing he can keep a squad organised enough to compete in the top flight.
With Fulham’s ownership keen to keep him, but speculation over his long-term future refusing to go away, a move across London to a club with Champions League ambitions could be a tempting next step.
At 6/1 in the next Tottenham manager odds, Silva looks a live contender if Spurs decide they want a proven Premier League operator.
Klopp A Box Office Option
Jurgen Klopp is also 6/1 in the next Tottenham manager odds, a price that reflects both his elite pedigree and the uncertainty over whether he would manage another Premier League club.
The German enjoyed a hugely successful spell at Liverpool, winning the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, League Cup, the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup, transforming the Reds into one of Europe’s dominant forces.
The key question for Spurs is whether Klopp, who left Anfield in 2024 after nine years, would be willing to take charge of a domestic rival after such a defining association with Liverpool.
Currently, he is away from management, having taken up a role as head of global football at Red Bull, overseeing its international network of clubs, making any move to north London a dramatic and unexpected return to the dugout.
Maresca Enters Equation
Enzo Maresca is an 8/1 chance in the next Tottenham manager odds after ending his 18-month spell at Chelsea following a breakdown in relations with the club’s ownership.
During his time at Stamford Bridge, Maresca attempted to implement a possession-heavy, positional style, with mixed results, as Chelsea struggled for consistency amid off-field distractions.
His clear coaching philosophy and willingness to trust younger players could appeal to Spurs as they look for a defined identity and long-term direction.
The key questions are whether Maresca would be open to such a swift return to management - and whether Tottenham’s hierarchy would gamble on a coach who walked away from a major Premier League job so quickly.
Amorim Makes Market Move
Former Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has been cut from 14/1 to 10/1 in the next Tottenham manager odds.
The former Benfica midfielder was given his marching orders earlier this month following a fall-out with the hierarchy over a refusal to adapt his tactics to different circumstances.
Amorim proved to be a great success as a coach in his native Portugal, steering Sporting to two Primeira Liga titles, but he left Old Trafford with the worst points per game record of any manager in the post Alex-Ferguson era.
Would the Spurs board want to take a chance on a manager who would not compromise on his preferred 3-4-3 formation? At this stage, he looks like a risk, but his odds suggest he is a contender.
De Zerbi Remains A Tempting Option
Roberto De Zerbi is another name that refuses to go away whenever a major job becomes available, and his current work at Marseille only strengthens that trend.
After leaving Brighton in 2024, having led the Seagulls to their highest-ever Premier League finish of sixth and a first season in Europe, he took over at the French club and turned them into title challengers and Champions League performers.
De Zerbi’s sides are known for their brave, possession-based football and intricate build-up play – qualities that would sit well with the Tottenham fanbase.
Marseille have already publicly expressed their desire to keep him, but at 12/1, he remains a fascinating candidate to replace Frank if he is sacked.
Iraola’s Rise Continues
Andoni Iraola has earned plenty of admirers for the job he has done at Bournemouth, where he has turned the Cherries into an awkward proposition for the division’s elite.
He led Bournemouth to a club-record 48 Premier League points and a 12th-place finish in 2023/24, earning himself a contract extension through to 2026 in the process.
Under the Spaniard, Bournemouth have shown they can compete with the big boys, recording some shock wins over the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City.
Having recently been 8/1, his price has drifted to 14/1, so a move to Spurs looks unlikely at this stage.
Xavi In The Conversation
Elsewhere, Xavi Hernandez (14/1) remains unattached since leaving Barcelona in 2024 and has repeatedly been linked with a move to the Premier League.
Former Spurs player Robbie Keane has won titles in Israel and Hungary as a manager, so it is no surprise to see him priced at 14/1.
