Next manager odds latest as process continues to appoint new Sheffield Wednesday boss

Sheffield Wednesday are advancing their search for a new manager after sacking Henrik Pedersen following a 2-0 defeat to Doncaster Rovers. Club officials have conducted several interviews with domestic and international candidates to fill the managerial vacancy. Former Stockport County manager Dave Challinor has emerged as the clear betting favourite at 1/2 to succeed Pedersen at Hillsborough.

Interim manager Matt Hamshaw oversaw a 1-1 draw against Cambridge United and will stay in charge against Blackpool. Other leading managerial contenders listed by BetVictor include former Preston North End boss Paul Heckingbottom at 2/1, alongside Hamshaw and former Bromley manager Andy Woodman, who are both priced at 8/1.
