Having won just two of their opening 16 Premier League games, Wolves have sacked Gary O’Neil after their most recent loss to Ipswich, which has prompted the layers to price up the next Wolves manager odds market – making former England boss Gareth Southgate the favourite.
Who Will Be The Next Wolves Manager? The Layers Install Gareth Southgate As Favourite
After a poor 2-1 home defeat to Ipswich, the writing that was on the wall for Wolves manager Gary O’Neil become a reality – with the former Bournemouth head coach sacked – but who will take over at Molineux?
If the the best football betting sites in the UK are to be believed then the next Wolves manager could be Gareth Southgate.
The former England manager left that role after the summer 2024 Euros – saying he wanted a break. However, some are now suggesting he’s now ready to start looking for his next challenge.
Southgate was in charge of 102 England games – winning 61, drawing 24 and losing 17.
Gareth Southgate also managed Middlesbrough between 2006 and 2009, so is certainly no stranger to taking charge at club level.
The ex-Three Lion is the 3/1 favourite in the betting to be the next manager of the Midlands club.
Next Wolves Manager Betting Odds – The Full List
- Gareth Southgate 3/1
- Sergio Conceicao 4/1

Other Next Wolves Manager Candidates Also Include Graham Potter and David Moyes
Just behind Gareth Southgate in the next Wolves manager odds market are two other familiar names – Graham Potter and David Moyes.
The best betting sites in the UK and SportsCasting traders are making former Chelsea manager Potter 7/1.
With David Moyes on offer at a slightly shorter 5/1 – with former Porto boss Sergio Conceicao also high up the list.
Plus, with the Wolves owners having a Portuguese coach in the past with Nuno Espirito Santo – they could be tempted to look towards this country again.
Both Potter and Moyes are free agents at the moment, so making a move for them would be easier for Wolves, should they part ways with Gary O’Neil.
Commentary: sportscasting.com/uk spokesman Andy Newton, reacted to our ‘Next Wolves Manager’ odds saying:
“Despite Gareth Southgate being as short as 3/1 to be the next Wolves manager, who feel that the former England boss won’t fancy the pressure of trying to keep Wolves from being relegated so soon after leaving his England role.
“Ruud van Nistelrooy had been rumoured, but he’s since taken up the vacant manager’s job at Leicester City.
“Therefore, the safer call for Wolves would be to turn to the more experienced David Moyes, who has been managing for over 26 years – which also includes a stack of knowledge leading a side in the Premier League.
