Crystal Palace, who are still searching for a replacement for Oliver Glasner, are currently monitoring a “highly rated” manager who has lost just three Premier League games.
Possible replacements for Glasner at Crystal Palace:
His tantrums have intensified in recent months, but there’s no denying that Glasner will be an incredibly tough chase at Selhurst Park.
After winning the FA Cup and breaking into European football, it’s not even preposterous to suggest that he will go down as one of, if not the greatest, manager to ever set foot in a south London technical area. He simply achieved what was previously considered unachievable.
Nevertheless, this is an act that someone will have to follow this summer, and many names have already been floated in the search for Crystal Palace’s manager.
One of them is Jose Bordalas. The Getafe manager has built a considerable reputation in Spain for his pragmatic football, with a focus on honing results rather than entertainment.
His appointment in south London will no doubt polarize opinion, but there’s no denying he’s getting results. With only a few games remaining, Getafe are in eighth place in La Liga.
But the Getafe manager is not the only player whose name has been mentioned for the Palace post. In addition to him, the Eagles are also keeping an eye on Sean Dyche, who was released by Nottingham Forest earlier this season.
Veteran managers like Bordalas are not known for entertaining football, instead focusing on results. Neither option is likely to satisfy the majority at Selhurst Park, who may be hoping for an alternative candidate to emerge.
Crystal Palace keep tabs on Liam Rosenier
As reported by Football Insider, Crystal Palace are also monitoring the progress of Liam Rosenior as pressure continues to intensify on the Chelsea manager.
The Eagles are long-time fans of the 41-year-old, and Chelsea’s usual ruthlessness could mean they could swoop in before summer arrives.
After an 8-2 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League and a 3-0 defeat at Everton, there are serious questions about Rosenior’s tenure in west London.

draw | 2 |
defeat | 3 |
Despite the recent pressure, Rosenior has lost just three of his 10 games as manager in the Premier League and Palace cannot afford to ignore him if he becomes available.
The former Strasbourg manager, who was described as “highly rated” by former Premier League scout Mick Brown, is a manager who needs time that Chelsea may not be able to give him.
Crystal Palace are planning to appoint Roy Hodgson as Glasner’s replacement.
Crystal Palace will appoint a new manager at the end of the 2025/26 season.
For a club like Palace, which is going through a period of transition, there is no doubt that it would be ideal to have someone who can bring benefits to the club in the long term, and Rosenior’s penchant for entertaining football is no different.
