Long term favourite Guus Hiddink has dropped from odds on to a longer <strong>8.0<\/strong> to become the new No.1 at the Premier League club.<\/p>\n<p>Other contenders who now appear to be out of the running for the Chelsea vacancy are Mark Hughes (<strong>17.0<\/strong>), Marco van Basten (<strong>26.0<\/strong>), Harry Redknapp (<strong>34.0<\/strong>), Pep Guardiola (<strong>34.0<\/strong>) and Rafael Benitez (<strong>67.0<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p>Villas-Boas&#8217; reputation has rocketed after he led Porto to a treble of trophies in his first season in charge. He worked for Chelsea as an assistant to Jose Mourinho during 2004-2007 before following the Special One to Inter.<\/p>\n<p>Porto president Pinto da Costa has insisted his club can do nothing if a rival club meets the deposit clause to hire Villas-Boas.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cVillas-Boas has a contract and a clause of \u20ac15 million \u00a313.2m. If someone deposits \u20ac15 million into our account and he wants to go, we can not do anything because it is something that is contractually specified.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Having spent big in January to sign Fernando Torres and David Luiz, the bookies now reckon Roman Abramovich will open his wallet again to hire Chelsea&#8217;s latest manager.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Next Chelsea Manager Odds (Shortest Price)<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bet365.com\/home\/?affiliate=365_069562\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Andre Villas-Boas @ 1.09<br \/>Guus Hiddink @ 8.0<br \/>Mark Hughes @ 17.0<br \/>Marco van Basten @ 26.0<br \/>Harry Redknapp @ 34.0<br \/>Pep Guardiola @ 34.0<br \/>Rafael Benitez @ 67.0<\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bet365.com\/home\/?affiliate=365_069562\" \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c4\" src=\"http:\/\/u.goal.com\/133600\/133608hp2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"80\" \/><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><em><strong><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bet365.com\/home\/?affiliate=365_069562\">Sign up with bet365 to bet now!<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><em>Our<span>\u00a0<\/span><\/em><span><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/GoalUK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/u.goal.com\/93900\/93900.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"48\" height=\"11\" \/><\/em><\/a><\/span><em>\u00a0provides the best breaking news online and our\u00a0<\/em><span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/GoalUK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/u.goal.com\/93800\/93899.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"49\" height=\"10\" \/><\/em><\/a><\/span><em>\u00a0football fan community is unmatched worldwide.
