Analysis
This market shows extreme illiquidity with zero 24-hour volume and a 7-cent spread despite only $1,938 open interest, making the quoted 3-cent price potentially unreliable for actual execution. The 10,394% implied yield on the Yes side is a mathematical artifact of the low price rather than a genuine opportunity, given that Thomas Tuchel was already appointed Manchester United manager in October 2024, well before this market's August 2026 expiration. The neutral regime score and flat 114-day price action suggest the market may not have updated to reflect Tuchel's confirmed appointment, presenting a potential mispricing if the resolution criteria are interpreted as already satisfied.

Resolution rules
