BRENDAN RODGERS is favourite to be the FIRST Premier League manager of the 2022-23 season to leave his position.
That’s according to bookmakers Sky Bet, who’ve delivered a colossal price change on the Leicester manager leaving the King Power Stadium.
Rodgers, 49, was available at 15/2 heading into the weekend’s action.
But he’s now the 8/13 favourite to be AXED ahead of Everton’s Frank Lampard, Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard and Ralph Hasenhuttl of Southampton.
The Foxes are 18th in the table having collected just one point from their opening three fixtures.
Leicester blew a two-goal lead at home to Brentford on the opening weekend of the season, before being hammered 4-2 at Arsenal.
They lost again on Saturday when conceding TWICE in 16 minutes against the previously winless Southampton.
And now have a daunting run of games against Chelsea, Manchester United, Brighton, Aston Villa and Tottenham.
Rodgers and supporters are becoming increasingly frustrated with the club’s lack of transfer activity.
Sky Bet odds
Only Alex Smithies, a third-choice goalkeeper, has joined the club while there’s talk of Wesley Fofana, James Maddison and Youri Tielemans leaving.
The Northern Irishman has three years remaining on his contract, which expires in June 2025.
But Sky Bet think his departure could be a lot sooner.
Elsewhere Frank Lampard is offered at 5/1.
Everton grabbed their first point of the campaign against Nottingham Forest on Saturday, and the majority of supporters are behind him.
Ralph Hasenhuttl is priced at 13/2, narrowly behind 6/1 Steven Gerrard and ahead of Manchester United’s Erik ten Hag at 10/1.

Think YOU know which Premier League managers won’t last the season? Betfair have got a new market for that!
Punters can now combine which top-flight bosses they think will leave their club before the final day of the 2022-23 season.
Ten managers were sent packing during the 2021-22 season, and it could be a similar number this year with the stakes at an all-time high.
Example: Frank Lampard, Marco Silva, Scott Parker and Thomas Tuchel all to leave before the final match of the season is offered at 12/1. A £10 stake would return £124!
