Crystal Palace Reopen Talks to Extend Oliver Glasner's Contract

Chairman Steve Parish says any agreement hinges on meeting the manager’s conditions to match his drive to win.

Overview

  • Parish confirmed on talkSPORT that “early conversations” have restarted about a new deal for Glasner, whose contract runs to the end of the season.
  • The club wants to keep the Austrian but stresses the need for the right working conditions that allow him to compete for trophies.
  • Glasner has boosted his leverage by delivering the FA Cup and Community Shield and starting the league campaign strongly with Palace in sixth.
  • Media links persist to vacancies at bigger clubs, including Manchester United and Bayern Munich, while Glasner has deflected questions about his future.
  • BBC Sport reports he was offered an extension in the summer without signing, and Parish says midfielder Adam Wharton is focused on Palace but likely to seek Champions League football in his career.
