Who will be the next premier league manager to leave their post? #9

Question

Resolution criteria

Resolves to the answer naming the first permanent Premier League first-team head coach/manager to leave their post after the market’s creation timestamp (UTC on Manifold). “Leave” includes being sacked, resigning, “mutual consent,” or departing for another job; moving into a different non–head coach role at the same club also counts. Interim/caretaker changes do not count unless the club had formally designated the person as permanent at the time of departure.

Evidence priority: (1) Official club announcement (news/statement page) with timestamp; if absent/ambiguous then (2) Premier League site article; if still ambiguous then (3) time-stamped reports from BBC Sport or Reuters. Earliest timestamp wins. If two departures are truly simultaneous by published time, use Reuters timestamps as the tiebreaker. (premierleague.com, reuters.com)

Rumors/reports without club confirmation do not count. Announced future exits (e.g., “will leave at season’s end”) resolve at the announcement time.

Only answers listed are eligible. If the first departing manager is not among the provided answers, the market resolves N/A.

Sources for resolution checks: Premier League managers overview; club sites via Premier League; BBC/Reuters for fallback verification. (premierleague.com, reuters.com)

Background

Context: The 2025–26 Premier League season is underway. For reference on current managers, see the Premier League’s 2025/26 managers hub and managers overview. (premierleague.com)

Most recent departure: Igor Tudor left Tottenham Hotspur on 29 March 2026. This market concerns the next departure after your market’s creation time. (reuters.com)

Considerations

Because answers are fixed (no “Other”), if an unlisted manager leaves first, this market will resolve N/A.

Temporary absences (medical leave, suspension) don’t count unless the club states the manager has left the role.

If a club re-titles the role (e.g., “head coach” vs “manager”), treat them identically; assistants or directors leaving do not count. (premierleague.com)

New Context!

I have taken Manchester United out of the options - to avoid the whole head coach / interim / caretaker manager malarky

New New Context!

I will N/A Tottenham Hotspur if they appoint an interim manager (like with Michael Carrick at Manchester United)
