Arsenal news: Carlo Ancelotti is favourite to replace Arsene Wenger as Gunners manager
Frenchman is becoming under increased pressure as boss at the Emirates after their 3-0 defeat in the Carabao Cup final
CARLO ANCELOTTI is favourite to replace Arsene Wenger as Arsenal boss, according to Sun Bets.
The experienced 58-year-old is to take over the helm at the Emirates after the Gunners were humiliated 3-0 by Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final.
The Gunners are set for another disappointing season and the bookies have slashed the odds on the former Chelsea, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain boss to be Wenger’s successor.
Some of Europe’s best managers are in the hat for the enticing job in north London, including Joachim Low (10/3), Thomas Tuchel (9/1) and Diego Simeone (12/1).
Meanwhile, former Invicibles Thierry Henry (20/1) and Dennis Bergkamp (25/1) could return to the club to replace the man who guided them to glory.
Regarding the possibility of replacing Wenger, Henry told Sky Sports: “Listen, I still have a job to do with Belgium, but it will be a dream for me.”

Former Arsenal captain Mikel Arteta, who helped mastermind Man City’s 3-0 triumph at Wembley as Pep Guardiola’s assistant, is priced at 10/1 to get the job.
Sun Bets spokesman Tim Reynolds said: “Arsene Wenger has been at Arsenal for 22 years but it appears as though he will have to fight to see out his current contract.
