Next Leeds United manager: Liverpool legend named second favourite ahead of ex-Leicester City and Birmingham City bosses
Sam Allardyce remains the favourite at 5/2 but Gerrard is close behind at 3/1 with Sky Bet. Gerrard has been out of work since being axed by Aston Villa in October 2022.
If he was to be appointed at Elland Road, it would be his first senior management role outside of a top flight. He began his senior management career with Rangers before Villa came calling in 2021.

Also at 6/1 is West Bromwich Albion head coach Carlos Corberan, a man familiar with Leeds having previously led the club’s under-23 side and assisted Marcelo Bielsa with first-team affairs.
Former Leeds midfielder Lee Bowyer is 8/1, while Graham Potter and Patrick Vieira have been given odds of 18/1. Outside contenders include Chris Wilder at 22/1 and Nuno Espirito Santo at 25/1.
