London -โข Crystal Palace is moving to secureโข manager Oliver Glasner โwith a new contract amid reported interestโ from Manchester United, according to club chairman Steve Parish.The โgrowth โcomes โขas Manchester United evaluates itsโค managerial position following a challengingโฃ run of form under its โcurrent manager.
Glasner, โขwho hasโข led Palace to success in both the โFA Cup โขand Community Shield despite limited resources, seesโข his currentโฃ contract โexpire this summer, opening the door for potential approachesโ from โother clubs. Manchester united’s interest stems from Palace’s achievements under Glasner and the club’s search for โa manager โcapable of โreversing their recent fortunes – having lost 21โ of 50 matches since November 2024, winning only 20.
“we spoke at the start. We want toโข keep Oliver, we are building something,” Parish told The Mirror. “I think โฃfor Oliver, the conditionsโ have to be right. It’s allโ about how heโ can be agreeable working โand can meet the targets โคhe wants.”
Glasner has publicly stated his ambitionโข to win trophies, aโค desire Parish acknowledges is central toโ the manager’s ambitions. “Oliver wantsโ to win lots of trophies. He’s been outspoken โabout that, that’s football for him.”
Palace’s proactive approach signals their determinationโค to โคretain Glasner and continue the progress made under his leadership.
