Southampton are in the market for a new manager after Ivan Juric's departure following their relegation to the Championship, with Danny Rohl currently odds on favourite.
The Sheffield Wednesday manager is currently priced at 1/2, ahead of Liam Rosenior and Simon Rusk, to be named as Juric's successor at the St Mary's Stadium after the latter's departure after the Saints' relegation was confirmed on Sunday.

Juric took over as Southampton boss a couple of days before Christmas, having been sacked by Roma a month earlier, with previous manager Russell Martin having been dismissed with the club rock bottom of the Premier League.
The Hampshire side had picked up six points from their opening 17 games of the season prior to the Croatian's appointment as manager, but since picked up just four points from their 14 league matches under Juric's tutelage.
Southampton have just two league wins to their name all season and face the risk of 'beating' Derby's unwanted record of 11 points accrued throughout an entire Premier League season, the fewest in the competition's history.
Danny Rohl was heavily linked with the Southampton job following Russell Martin's sacking in December, having previously served as assistant manager at the club under Ralph Hasenhuttl for the latter half of the 2018/19 season prior to leaving for the same role at Bayern Munich.
The 35-year-old was appointed manager at Hillsborough in October last season, taking over a newly promoted Championship side without a win and with just three points to their name after 11 matches, already seven points from safety.
The German ended up leading the Owls to a 20th place finish, and currently has the Yorkshire side 13th in the second tier and had still been in with a shout of reaching the play-offs until recent weeks.

Other names being linked with the Saints job are current Strasbourg boss Liam Rosenior, who came close to delivering play-off football to Hull in the second tier last season, but currently has his new side fourth in the Ligue 1 table, on track for a place in next season's Champions League.
Simon Rusk, like Rosenior, is also priced at 6/1 to be named the next Saints boss. The former Scotland youth international joined the club from Nottingham Forest in the summer as U21 boss but had two games as caretaker manager following Martin's sacking and has been been placed in charge of the side for the remaining seven games of the season.
A trio of managers who have been sacked from their Premier League jobs this season are also in the hunt, with ex-Leicester boss Steve Cooper at 10/1, while ex-Everton manager Sean Dyche and former Wolves are both priced at 12/1.
