NATHAN JONES is a strong favourite for the Southampton job.
That’s according to bookmakers Sky Bet, who’ve installed the Luton Town manager at 2/5 to replace Ralph Hasenhuttl at St Mary’s.
However, there’s several other high-profile contenders with Sean Dyche, Marcelo Gallardo and Mauricio Pochettino all in contention.
Hasenhuttl was relieved of his duties on Monday following Southampton’s 4-1 home defeat by Newcastle.
The 55-year-old was appointed in December 2018, but departs with the club anchored in the Premier League relegation zone with 12 points from a possible 42.
