šØBREAKING NEWS: Oliver Glasner has officially turned down Crystal Palaceās latest contract extension offer.
The Austrian tactician, who has impressed since taking charge at Selhurst Park, has now set his sights firmly on the Manchester United job amid growing speculation surrounding RĆŗben Amorimās uncertain future at Old Trafford.
Glasnerās decision not to commit long-term to Palace has raised eyebrows, particularly given how he has managed to transform the Eagles into a disciplined, well-structured side with a clear tactical identity. His reputation skyrocketed after guiding Eintracht Frankfurt to Europa League glory in 2022, and he has since carried that same tactical sharpness into the Premier League. But while Palace are eager to keep him, the lure of Manchester Unitedāa club steeped in history and in desperate need of stabilityāmay simply be too tempting to ignore.
United, meanwhile, are still navigating a turbulent season under Amorim. While the Portuguese coach arrived with high expectations, results and performances have been inconsistent, with growing discontent inside the dressing room and mounting pressure from supporters. The board is already exploring alternatives, and Glasnerās availability could present a perfect opportunity for a fresh start.
Sources close to Glasner suggest that he views United as a ādream projectāāa chance to rebuild a fallen giant and leave a lasting legacy at one of the biggest clubs in world football. With his pragmatic yet attacking brand of football, he is seen as a manager who could bring balance and structure to a side that has often lacked identity in recent years.
Crystal Palace now face the daunting task of preparing for life without their head coach, while Manchester United fans wait with anticipationācould Glasner be the man to lead the Red Devils into a new era?
