OLIVER GLASNER and Xavi top the betting to become the next Tottenham Hotspur manager.
Bookmakers talkSPORT BET can’t split the pair as the 4/1 joint-favourites to replace Ange Postecoglou – irrespective of how tonight’s Europa League final pans out.
Tottenham’s run to the final has been terrific, though a far cry from the domestic woes.
Only the three, poor relegated sides sit below them in the Premier League table ahead of the final day.
They’ve lost more Premier League games (21) so far than they have had wins and draws (11, 5) COMBINED.
Though it’s also right to point out their injury record has been astonishing at times, with players forced to play out of position in what has been a hectic schedule.
Postecoglou has had to fight his corner for much of the second half of this season, though even if winning in Bilbao tonight, it would appear the writing is on the wall that he won’t be here next season.
Who are the favourites for the Spurs job?
The talkSPORT BET betting markets have Oliver Glasner and Xavi (4/1) at the top of the next Spurs manager market.
Glasner’s stock couldn’t be higher after leading Crystal Palace to their first ever major trophy at Wembley this season.

While Xavi has remained out of work since getting the bullet as Barcelona boss at the tail-end of last season.
Scott Parker (5/1) is understood to be highly thought of in the Spurs hierarchy having guided Burnley back to the Premier League for next year and he’s just ahead of Brentford boss Thomas Frank (6/1), who is destined for a really top job soon.
Frank is the same price as Francesco Farioli, who recently left Ajax after a complete collapse in the Eredivisie left them as runners-up to PSV despite holding a huge advantage in the closing weeks.
Mauricio Pochettino is 8/1 to make his return to Tottenham, just ahead of Andoni Iraola, Kieran McKenna and Roberto De Zerbi all at 10/1.
