Disastrous defeat at the Allianz Arena puts further doubt French manager's future at the club and it's odds-on that he is not in the dugout when Arsenal kick-off the 2017-18 campaign...

Arsene Wenger Odds
10/1 to be the next Premier League Manager to leave
8/11 to not be the Arsenal Manager on the first day of next season
Evens to be the Arsenal Manager on the first day of next season

The odds of this season being Arsene Wenger's last in charge of Arsenal are now 8/11 on Betfair, following the club's disastrous 5-1 Champions League first leg loss at Bayern Munich last night.

Now in his 21st year with the club, speculation has been mounting that the Frenchman's reign could be coming to an end, with last night's thumping defeat adding fuel to the fire.

Katie Baylis, Spokesperson for Betfair, said: "With the odds now looking in favour of Wenger departing, attention is also turning to who would take over. Thomas Tuchel who has impressed at Borussia Dortmund since replacing Jurgen Klopp and Juventus manager Max Allegri are the joint 4/1 favourites, with Eddie Howe at 5/1."

While Wenger is expected to go at the end of the season, he is now into 10/1 from 20/1 to be the next Premier League manager to leave.

Next Permanent Arsenal Manager (selected prices)
Thomas Tuchel 4/1
Massimiliano Allegri 4/1
Eddie Howe 5/1
Joachim Low 10/1
Frank de Boer 14/1
Roberto Mancini 14/1
Dennis Bergkamp 16/1
Ronald Koeman 16/1
Patrick Vieira 16/1
Thierry Henry 16/1
