Ryan Giggs’s wait for a managerial job could be set to continue after a gamble on the Manchester United legend to take over at Sunderland stalled.

Hills punters backed Giggs from 25-1 to 1-5 to fill the vacancy at the Stadium of Light before confidence started to dwindle and the Welshman was eased to 4-7 with Aberdeen’s Derek McInnes at 5-2.

There is no such uncertainty about Arsene Wenger’s future at Arsenal after the veteran Frenchman signed on for two more years and Ladbrokes go 7-1 that he wins another Premier League title with the Gunners.

Bet365 make Wenger 7-4 to leave before the end of 2018-19 and 8-11 to win a major trophy in the next two seasons. He is 4-1 with Ladbrokes to depart during the 2017-18 campaign.

Two goals from Everton’s Ademola Lookman helped England to a 2-1 victory over Costa Rica in the last 16 of the Under-20 World Cup.

After Lookman’s brace, Betway chalked up England as 9-2 joint-favourites with France, who take on Italy in the last 16.

Mexico face Senegal before the USA’s clash with New Zealand.

Bet365 – Arsene Wenger to win a major trophy in next two seasons: 8-11 yes, Evs no; to be Arsenal manager on final day of 2018-19 season: 2-5 yes, 7-4 no.
