Next Permanent Swansea Manager Betting

Swansea gave Luke Williams the chop back in February after a run of poor results left them looking over their shoulder at the relegation fight. At the time, there were 13 games remaining and the club have opted to run through to the summer without naming a permanent replacement. You’d think that would mean they’ve cultivated a strong list of potential successors but who will the next Swansea manager be?

How Do Odds Change When a Manager Leaves?

Your bet will win if your pick is confirmed as the next permanent manager. The odds will then be set again for the other managers, and the market will go live once more.

Mid-table Mediocrity Buys Swans Time

With Swansea picking up a set of decent results under the guiding hand of caretaker manager Alan Sheehan, they have moved into a position in the table where their fate for next season is all but mathematically confirmed.

They will be a Championship side again. It means they head into the summer having had plenty of time to assess their options whilst also being able to plan for the future with little uncertainty.

Who is the Favourite to be the Next Swansea Manager?

As of 6 May 2025, according to the odds, the favourite to be the next Swansea manager is Alan Sheehan, best priced at 1/5 with BetVictor.

The odds mean that the probability for Alan Sheehan to be the next permanent Swansea manager is 83.33%.

Is It Sheehan Safe Hands or Do Swansea Seek a Sexier Name?

Alan Sheehan was placed in temporary charge after the departure of Williams and he has delivered a strong set of results during his time as boss having won five, drawn two and lost just two from his nine games in charge.

That form – a 56% win ratio – has led to some fans wanting Sheehan to get the gig full-time. Will that be a route the club hierarchy want to take though? It’s a far cry from the headlines of Luka Modric buying a stake in the club.

Next Swansea Manager Betting Tips & Analysis

Let's take a look at the top contenders in the next Swansea manager betting odds market.

Odds were accurate at the time of the tips and analysis. For the latest odds, use the list above.

  • Alan Sheehan

    We might as well kick off our Swansea next manager chat with the man who currently finds himself in the dugout, Alan Sheehan. Outside of caretaker roles, both at Swansea, Sheehan, 38, is yet to dip his toes into the world of football management and, as such, it would be a bold move for the club to give him the job on a full-time basis.

    If, however, that does happen this summer then it’s a move that would be largely well received by the fanbase with the majority taking to the former Luton left back. Of course, winning over half of his games in charge has helped with that goodwill and how the Swans end the campaign could further influence the feeling towards him.

    The lack of experience as a number one does likely come into play here though, particularly with changes in the boardroom having been announced in recent days. We’re not saying Sheehan is an impossible appointment but it feels like a back up plan to missing out on preferred candidates as opposed to Sheehan being “the man”.

  • Des Buckingham

    Rewind to the days immediately after Williams’ sacking and Des Buckingham was one of the standout names mentioned in connection with the vacancy. Fast forward a couple of months and the chatter isn’t going away, which would suggest there is almost definitely an interest from one or both parties.

    Buckingham’s managerial journey is a really interesting one with spells in three different countries before arriving at Oxford in November 2023. With the Yellows, the 40-year-old earned promotion into the Championship before making a solid start to life in the second tier prior to being harshly sacked just before Christmas, much to the outrage of Oxford fans.

    Buckingham would probably snap your hand off for another crack at Championship level and, such is his reputation as a young coach in the game, his name is one that would garner some attention without whipping up a media frenzy.

  • Russell Martin

    Swansea’s recently appointed Sporting Director, Richard Montague, has made little secret of his desire to bring in a manager that has a strong philosophy with an appetite to play possession based football. When we hear that, we see Russell Martin. Martin lost his job as Southampton manager in December for being too wedded to that exact style of football.

    There is an obvious link between the club and Martin too because he used to manage the Swans before leaving them for Southampton. With the club having progressed under Martin’s tutelage whilst playing good football and also getting the better of their bitter rivals, Cardiff, it’s fair to say the fans would love such an appointment.

    Whether or not Martin could be convinced for another crack in South Wales though remains to be seen. What alternative offers come his way could be a key factor in his decision making and a Premier League job certainly won’t be on the menu so, stretching as it may seem, a return isn’t impossible.

  • Eric Ramsay

    Eric Ramsay has already denied having eyes on the Swansea job, which obviously dampens the chance of him suddenly being named their new manager but words are cheap in football and you can make a very strong case for Ramsay being a great fit for Swansea, and vice-versa.

    Ramsay, 33, started his coaching journey within the Swansea academy setup whilst also boasting some big connections in the English game having also enjoyed spells at Chelsea and Manchester United.

    With the early signs of his first managerial job, in the MLS for Minnesota, being positive ones, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him fast-tracked into the English game given his pedigree, connections and the ceiling many believe he has as an up and coming coach.
