The board of London’s Crystal Palace is preparing to hold official talks with Sean Dyche regarding his potential appointment as the club’s head coach.
Details: According to Alan Nixon, the Eagles view the 54-year-old as a priority option to stabilize the club’s current situation. Since parting ways with Nottingham Forest in February, Dyche has been a free agent, making his signing both swift and cost-effective for the Londoners.
This sudden change in direction comes after difficulties in negotiations with their original top target, Andoni Iraola. Although the Bournemouth boss was seen as the ideal fit by the Palace hierarchy, the Spanish coach is also on the radar of other, more high-profile clubs.
Recognizing the challenge of landing Iraola, Crystal Palace owner Steve Parish has decided not to waste time and is turning to a proven candidate with vast Premier League survival experience. Reports suggest that Steve Parish has long been an open admirer of Sean Dyche’s methods.
It’s worth noting that the Eagles are currently struggling in the league, sitting as low as 14th in the standings.
Reminder: Liverpool is ready to spend 80 million euros on Nottingham defender Murillo.
