Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is the odds on faviourite to be the next Cardiff City manager.Solskjaer's name has been linked to several jobs in the UK but there's a suggestions he may already have spoken to Cardiff City.

Yilmax Vural is second favorite with Sven Goran Eriksson third.

Vincent Tan's odds have come in from 100/1 to 33/1 as the bookmakers joke that Tan could try to do it all himself.

Solskjaer is currently manager of Molde in Norway.

Life President Sam Hammam said of Solskjaer

"I've known him from when he was a young kid playing for Molde and I tried to buy him when I was the owner of Wimbledon," said Hammam.

"He had a good grounding when he played for Manchester United but significantly now he's the manager for Molde, he would have had very good basic grounding for what is needed now.

"We need a manager whose feet are on the ground and not just telling Vincent Tan, 'give me your money, give me your money' as if Vincent Tan is a cash cow."

Malky Mackay has been installed as favourite for the vacant post at West Bromwich Albion.
