Chris Coleman edges ahead in the race to replace Bob Bradley as Swansea manager

Chris Coleman edged ahead in the race to become the next Swansea City manager, while sacked Bob Bradley admitted he was ‘p****d off’ by his dismissal after only 85 days.

Sportsmail understands Wales manager Coleman is the frontrunner for the post, with Ryan Giggs also in the frame to succeed Bradley, who departed on Tuesday with the club swamped in relegation trouble.

They are joined by Gary Rowett, while Nigel Pearson, Paul Clement, Frank de Boer and Roy Hodgson are fringe contenders. Harry Redknapp has also declared his interest in the role. But it is Coleman who is the leading candidate.
