Crystal Palace want former Tottenham boss Thomas Frank to replace the departing Oliver Glasner | OneFootball

Former Tottenham Hotspur manager Thomas Frank has emerged as a candidate to replace Oliver Glasner at Crystal Palace, according to the Sun.

Frank was fired by Spurs last month after just eight months in charge, but Palace have him on their radar.

Palace and Glasner are parting ways at the end of the season, and they want a manager with Premier League experience to replace him.

Frank fits the bill and could be appointed despite his underwhelming spell at Tottenham.

The Dane previously impressed at Brentford, making them mainstays in the top-flight after guiding them to promotion from the Championship at the end of the 2020-21 season.

He will be eager to return to the Premier League and prove himself again.

The Eagles could do with his experience and quality, and a decision on their next manager could be made as soon as the current campaign ends.

Spurs impressed in the Champions League despite their domestic struggles under Frank, finishing fourth in the table – ahead of Barcelona, Manchester City and Real Madrid – to book a place in the round of 16.

It remains to be seen whether Palace will be playing in Europe next season, despite qualifying for the Europa Conference League round of 16.

The Eagles are ten points above the relegation zone after 28 games, and they will hope to avoid the battle to avoid the drop in the coming weeks.
