Klopp odds slashed for shock move to Leicester
JURGEN KLOPP has been backed to be named the next Leicester manager and is as short as 5-1 with bet365, though Betfred still offer a standout 16-1.
The former Borussia Dortmund manager was available at 100-1 last week but the money for him making an unlikely switch does not appear to be drying up. He was 50-1 as recently as this morning.
The reason for such an unusual gamble isn't clear but Klopp topped a fans' poll about who they would like to take over at the King Power Stadium, and last month his agent said he would be willing to manage outside the top four of the Premier League.
Former Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink is the 7-4 favourite with Coral and Ladbrokes, while Neil Lennon comes next in the betting at 11-4 with bet365 and Ladbrokes.
