Oliver Glanser was on his way away this winter, as he had announced that he would not extend his contract with the club and the results in the Premier League were not forthcoming. It worked out, and the German decided to go all the way through the end of his contract. Palace supporters are now very happy with that. For now, the London club not only has titles in the FA Cup and Community Shield, on Wednesday Jørgen Strand Larsen’s coach also collected the Conference League title for Palace. Now they are working hard to secure another successful coach, perfect to take over the baton from Glasner.
At the same time as Glasner walks out after his contract expires, Andoni Iraola does the same at Bournemouth. The Spaniard leaves the club he took over as a relegation candidate, with a historic 6th place in the Premier League and Europa League ticket for the club.

Iraola is a highly sought-after coach, where the Spaniard is also being considered by Liverpool, if the gang at Anfield gets cold feet and withdraws confidence in Arne Slot before the start of the season. For Crystal Palace, Andoni is and will remain the first choice.
The BBC reports Palace have put offers on the table and are waiting for Andoni’s response, which is expected during the week.
We cross our fingers for Jørgen Stand Larsen and the Palace gang. Andoni is truly a coach who can give the club the much-needed boost in the Premier League.
