According to the BBC, Crystal Palace coach Glasner, the same contract as Guy, expired at the end of the season. Earlier this summer, the club provided him with a new contract, but it has not signed it yet. As the current trend develops, Glasner will leave the team next summer.
People familiar with the matter revealed that Glasner tends to make a decision after the transfer window is closed, mainly because he wants to see how much the club invests in strengthening the roster. As the transfer window this summer progresses, Glasner publicly criticized Crystal Palace's transfer operation. Among the five new players, only Pino has won the starting opportunity in the Premier League. In addition, Crystal Palace was ordered to be relegated from the Europa League by UEFA due to violation of the multi-club ownership rules. Considering these factors, it is understandable that Glasner showed hesitation about renewal.
So is it still possible that Glasner will be persuaded to stay in the future? Although the initial impression was not entirely optimistic, this possibility was not completely ruled out. However, according to sources close to Crystal Palace, it is unlikely that Glasner will remain in office. The inactive transfer window of Crystal Palace this summer is considered a signal that he has differences with the club in pursuit of goals, but this does not mean that Crystal Palace will give up persuading him to stay in office. If certain assurances can be provided to Glasner and given him more power in the transfer, it may prompt Glasner to at least be willing to start a conversation about the future. However, it was Glasner who rejected Guy's transfer to Liverpool on the transfer deadline, which shows that he already has considerable influence in the transfer.
How Crystal Palace solves the problems about Gee and Walton in the coming months will be worth paying attention. Gee is expected to leave the team freely and the team needs to sign a new central defender. The club is willing to renew Walton's contract and reached an agreement on the termination clause, which may exceed 75 million pounds. As for future midfield signings, Crystal Palace is interested in Alkmaar's 19-year-old Dutch teenager Smit.
According to the BBC learned from multiple sources that Glasner has been included in the shortlist for taking over Amorin to coach Manchester United, although Manchester United insiders insist that the club still fully supports the current head coach and have not formulated any shortlist for coaches. Bayern is also closely monitoring Glasner's trends, but Kompany is currently at the coaching position. Although coaching a giant is full of temptation, it may not be a better choice. Glasner has built a special team at Crystal Palace and has established a deep relationship with the players. Fans love him very much. Crystal Palace knows that he will leave eventually, and only hopes to postpone this result as long as possible.
