Check the next manager odds for any team whose boss is on the brink, or has already got the boot, and you are likely to see the name Brendan Rodgers.
Brendan Rodgers said: “I’ve got a contract until 2025. I absolutely love being here. I’m very fortunate, I’ve got a great chief executive (Susan Whelan) who runs the club, and a director of football (Jon Rudkin) I have a close relationship with, and a group of players I really enjoy working with. We have an infrastructure here that allows us to compete. For me, as long as they don’t want to move me, I’m very happy here. I’ve seen the reports around it. It doesn’t help anyone, particularly Steve and Newcastle. It’s the type of week I don’t like in the modern game.”
The Northern Irishman has been towards the top of bookmakers’ odds to take the reins at Newcastle United, Manchester United and even Barcelona in recent weeks. Now with Nuno Espirito Santo reportedly on the verge of getting sacked from Tottenham Hotspur, City chief Rodgers is in the frame once again.
