00:00 The frontrunner for the first manager to leave their club is Wolves boss Julian Lopetegui.
00:06 Lopetegui's future was considered uncertain earlier this summer after the Spaniard raised concerns over Wolves' financial fair play issues and their transfer budget.
00:16 He's since reaffirmed his commitment to the club despite several departures, including Ruben Neves, Raul Jimenez, Jaume Tinho and Adama Traore.
00:25 Sheffield United see their manager second on the favourites list to leave the club.
00:30 Paul Heckingbottom helped Sheffield United achieve promotion from the Championship but has lost seven of only ten fixtures as a Premier League boss.
00:39 The odds are all close for new Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraiola, Nottingham Forest Steve Cooper, Luton Towns Rob Edwards and Fulham's Marco Silva.
00:48 The odds for no manager to leave are 500-1, which after a record amount of managerial departures last season, I'd advise to keep away from that one.
00:58 one.
