Leicester City next manager odds as Ruud Van Nistelrooy leads opinion and Potter edges out
Ruud Van Nistelrooy is the clear favourite with the bookmakers in the race to replace Steve Cooper as manager of Leicester City with the club looking to get their man as soon as possible.
The former United player and interim boss was a big mover in the market overnight with SkyBet listing him as 1/4 to be handed the job of steering the Foxes away from the relegation zone.
Cooper was sacked on Sunday afternoon after just 12 game in charge at the King Power Stadium, and immediately attentions turned to Graham Potter and David Moyes.
