Crystal Palace have received a major update on their manager’s situation as Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola appears to have rejected an offer to replace Oliver Glasner.
Glasner’s current contract expires this summer and he will leave Selhurst Park at the end of the season after announcing earlier in the season that he would not be signing a new contract.
Iraola is also close to signing a top manager in the Premier League, and is one of the names being linked with Palace’s vacant vacancy.

However, Sky Sports reports that the Spanish tactician has turned down the job, which is likely to be a boost for clubs such as Liverpool and Manchester United.
Andoni Iraola despises Crystal Palace for bigger job?
Iraola came to be highly regarded during his time at Bournemouth, despite the team’s form being a bit sluggish in recent games.
Previously, there were rumors that he would be linked with Liverpool and Man United, so it seems likely that the 43-year-old will be given many opportunities as he becomes available to play this summer.
We already know that the Red Devils could be looking for a new manager, unless they bet on keeping inexperienced Michael Carrick after his spell as interim manager ends.
Meanwhile, LFC are currently performing very poorly under coach Arne Slott, which has increased the pressure on the Dutch tactician heading into the summer.
For now, the Reds are keeping their faith in Slott, but if the situation worsens between now and May, it’s easy to imagine they could be tempted to sign Iraola instead.
Meanwhile, Glasner has also been rumored as an option for the Old Trafford job.
