Crystal Palace have appointed Oliver Glasner as their new manager.

Glasner joins on a deal until the end of the 2025/26 season.

The announcement comes after Roy Hodgson stepped down as manager earlier today.

"I am looking forward to working with the talented squad, meeting the club’s supporters and experiencing the Selhurst Park atmosphere I have heard so much about," Glasner told Palace's official website.

Glasner, 49, was most recently manager of Frankfurt, with whom he won the 2021/22 UEFA Europa League.

Chairman Steve Parish said: “I’m delighted to welcome Oliver to the club. He has an outstanding record, and we believe he is the right manager to take the club forward at this pivotal stage.

“Wherever Oliver has gone so far in his managerial journey, success has been quick to follow, and we believe his ambition, as well as his exciting and attacking approach is the perfect fit for getting the most from our talented young squad in the remainder of this Premier League season and beyond.”

Palace are in Premier League action tonight when they visit Everton in a huge match in the fight against relegation, kick-off at 20:00 GMT.
