Barnsley are seeing out the League One season with Conor Hourihane in charge but he will soon vacate his post as head coach.
A mutual agreement to part ways has been struck and was announced hours before Barnsley’s 2-2 draw with Bradford City last weekend.
It has left fans wondering who will be at the helm when the 2026/27 campaign kicks off.
Regarding his upcoming departure, Hourihane said: “Obviously, I knew what time it was going out. I was really open and honest with them, and I asked them for a performance to make me proud. And by God, did they pay me back.
"It was just general discussions between myself, board and the club, how it's going to look moving forward, and we came to the conclusion that it was kind of best to part ways.
"The discussions will stay in-house and very private, obviously. There's great respect between me, club, board, fans and everyone involved. And we just felt the end of the season, it's probably the right time just to part ways."
Here is a fresh look at the BetVictor favourites to become Barnsley’s next boss following some movement in the odds.
