Manuel Pellegrini is odds-on at 4/5 with Ladbrokes to win a trophy in his first season after he was confirmed as the new Man City boss.
The Chilean signed a three-year contract at the Etihad Stadium and he’s 5/2 at Ladbrokes to land the Premier League title in his first year of that deal.
Punters expecting the former Malaga boss to find the going tough can tackle Ladbrokes’ 66/1 for Pellegrini to be the first top flight manager to lose his job and the same firm make him 4/1 not to last the season.
Alex Donohue of Ladbrokes told Betrescue: “The odds favour at least one trophy in his first season. Whether that is enough to hold down the job at City is another matter, but he looks like getting a season at least.”
