Timo Werner has been tupped for an early return to Germany after Ange Postecgolou tore strips off the Tottenham winger for his first-half display in the 1-1 draw against Rangers last night.
The attacker was hooked by the Australian at the break, as the Premier League side struggled to a Europa League point in Glasgow.
Ex-Celtic boss Postecoglou publicly criticised Werner for his 'unacceptable' performance.
Now, Werner has odds of 4/6 to return to parent club RB Leipzig in the January transfer window.
Conversely, Werner is 6/5 to fight for his place in the Tottenham setup and stay until the end of the season.
Lee Astley, spokesperson for BetIdeas, said: “Ange Postecoglou was less than complimentary about Timo Werner’s performance in Tottenham’s fortunate 1-1 draw against Rangers last night and the German forward could be set for an early return to parent club RB Leipzig next month.
“Tottenham are 4/6 to terminate Werner’s loan following another underwhelming spell in the Premier League for the ex-Chelsea man, while they are 6/5 to keep him until the end of the season.”

Postecoglou said of the 28-year-old: “He wasn't playing anywhere near the level he should.
“When you've got 18-year-olds, it's not acceptable to me. I said that to Timo. He's a senior international, he's a German international. It's not like we've got many options.
“I need everyone to at least be going out there, trying to give the best of themselves. His performance in the first half wasn't acceptable."
Asked how the RB Leipzig loanee and former Chelsea man had responded to his words, Postecoglou said: “I don't really know and it's not really of great concern.
“Like I said, we just need everybody, including him, to be contributing because we don't have the depth to leave people out if they're performing poorly. We need them to play their part.
“Like I said, especially the senior guys, when I'm asking younger guys to do massive jobs, I expect a level of performance from some of the senior guys and today wasn't that.”
