David Moyes is being tipped for a potentially immediate return to management at Tottenham Hotspur, if he gets sacked by Manchester United as expected.
Reports on Monday strongly suggested that the Old Trafford hierarchy had lost patience with the Scot and were planning to axe him in the summer, if not before.
A 2-0 defeat to his former club Everton, where Moyes left in June 2013 to succeed Sir Alex Ferguson at United, was the latest disappointment of his reign and ensured that Champions League qualification is now beyond the Red Devils.
Another Premier League manager who is likely to be ousted at the end of the season is Tottenham's Tim Sherwood, whose position has been questioned ever since he took the job in December of last year.
Outgoing Netherlands boss Louis van Gaal has been heavily touted as the next Lillywhites head coach, but is also thought to be monitoring Moyes's situation at United as he looks to test himself in England.
SkyBet are indicating that, if they lose out on their primary target, Spurs may look no further than Moyes as an alternative, with the 50-year-old the 6-1 third favourite, having previously been 40-1.
Southampton's Mauricio Pochettino and former AC Milan chief Massimiliano Allegri have also been linked with a move to White Hart Lane, with Van Gaal the 3-1 frontunner for both possible vacancies.
