Celtic next manager odds: Surprise name becomes new odds-on favourite

***UPDATE - Ladbrokes suspended betting on Celtic's next manager after Wilfried Nancy agreed to take over the Scottish Premiership champions.

• The latest odds from Ladbrokes have Wilfried Nancy as the new favourite to be Celtic's next permanent manager

• Bodo/Glimt boss Kjetil Knutsen is now second favourite, with current interim Martin O'Neill another contender

• Ex-Premier League players are also in the running to become Celtic's next manager, including Robbie Keane and Craig Bellamy

Wilfried Nancy is the overwhelming favourite in the next Celtic manager odds market, with the Columbus Crew boss emerging as a new candidate for the Scottish Premiership side.

Nancy has leapfrogged previous favourite Kieran McKenna and is odds-on at 1/6 to be the manager at Parkhead at the start of the 2026/27 season, with Martin O'Neill currently in charge as interim following the departure of Brendan Rodgers.

Kjetil Knutsen is another new name to see his odds drop, with the Bodo/Glimt boss now second favourite for the job at 5/1.

After a positive start to his interim stint, O'Neill is now third favourite to still be in charge by the start of next season at 6/1, with McKenna falling further back in the market to 10/1 after expressing his desire to remain at Ipswich.

Below are the odds for the 12 favourites to be Celtic's manager by the beginning of next season, with several former Premier League names included, such as Craig Bellamy, Robbie Keane and ex-Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou.

Rodgers' exit from Celtic came off the back of a 3-1 loss on October 26 to Hearts, the side who are the current league leaders.

O'Neill's first match as interim Celtic boss came on October 29, with the reigning SPFL champions thrashing Falkirk at home.
