Brighton manager Roberto de Zerbi

Former Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi is currently the bookies’ favourite to take over from Pep Guardiola at Manchester City once the Spaniard leaves the club.

He is followed by the manager of Girona, who are part of City Football Group, Michel, having guided the Spanish side to an unexpected third-placed finish in La Liga this season and is priced at 6/1 to make the move to Manchester.

Bayer Leverkusen’s Xabi Alonso is 8/1, meanwhile, whose side went unbeaten in the Bundesliga this season, winning the title as well as the DFB Pokal.

Sporting’s Ruben Amorim, new Bayern Munich boss and former City captain Vincent Kompany and France legend Zinedine Zidane are all priced at 10/1 with the bookmaker, while current Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is listed at 12/1.
