Top 5 managers to replace Niko Kovac – Bayern Munich next manager odds

4. Arsene Wenger – 9/1 odds to become next Bayern Munich manager

Wenger has been out of football for over a year now, but he has repeatedly talked up the possibility of a return – and a man with his resume would expect to go back in at the top.

While there has been talk of directorial roles, few coaching gigs could appeal more than Bayern. After years of fending off the top-spending clubs as Arsenal boss, Wenger would find himself the biggest fish in the Bundesliga sea were he to take the job.

He picked up three Premier League titles and seven FA Cup triumphs during a 22-year reign as Arsenal boss and is widely respected throughout the game. Still keen to take on another challenge at the age of 70 and could be a decent short-term solution.
