The Premier League could be on the verge of yet another managerial departure as the hectic winter period begins.<\/p>\n
Several top-flight bosses have already been dismissed this season due to poor results or internal issues at their clubs.<\/p>\n
Salah benched! Manager\u2019s bold tactics revealed!<\/p>\n
Nuno Espirito Santo was the first Premier League manager to be sacked in the 2025-26 campaign after losing his job at Nottingham Forest in September. His successor, Ange Postecoglou, lasted just over a month before also being dismissed.<\/p>\n
Nuno has since taken over at West Ham following Graham Potter\u2019s September exit, while Vitor Pereira became the latest casualty when Wolves dismissed him on 2 November.<\/p>\n
More clubs are weighing up potential changes, and one manager in particular now appears to be at serious risk of losing his position.<\/p>\n
Daniel Farke increasingly tipped as the next manager to be sacked<\/p>\n
Daniel Farke led Leeds back to the Premier League last season, but the team\u2019s inconsistency has left them fighting to stay up.<\/p>\n
Leeds currently sit 18th, level on points with 17th-placed West Ham, and face a difficult home match against Chelsea on Wednesday (3 December).<\/p>\n
Football Insider reported on 28 November that the club would give Farke two matches to save his job\u2014the first ended in a 3-2 loss to Manchester City. A major bookmaker now lists him as the 4\/9 favourite to be the next manager dismissed, ahead of Tottenham\u2019s Thomas Frank (4\/1) and Liverpool\u2019s Arne Slot (8\/1).<\/p>\n
According to The Guardian, \u201cmultiple sources\u201d inside the club believe Farke\u2019s future hangs in the balance, with the next few fixtures viewed as crucial.<\/p>\n
Who could replace Farke?<\/p>\n
Farke\u2019s popularity has dipped in West Yorkshire, and a heavy defeat to Chelsea could prompt the club to act.<\/p>\n
Should he be dismissed, Leeds will quickly turn their focus to a replacement as they attempt to avoid immediate relegation. Early names have already surfaced.<\/p>\n
Football Insider reports that Leeds are unlikely to appoint Postecoglou after his difficult time at Forest, though he remains a possible option. The club are also monitoring Brendan Rodgers following his departure from Celtic, and he could emerge as a leading candidate if the job becomes available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
