Former Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has emerged as a reported candidate for the Crystal Palace managerial role at Selhurst Park.
This speculation made the media after the current manager Oliver Glasner, confirmed is expected to leave the club at the end of the season. Palace’s hierarchy are believed to be drawing up a shortlist of possible replacements as they plan for the next phase of the club’s development.
Lampard’s name has gained traction due to his recent managerial work, which has helped rebuild his reputation after mixed spells in the Premier League. Crystal Palace's chairman Steve Parish is reportedly an admirer of the former England international, valuing his experience at the top level and his ability to work with young players.
The amazing form of Coventry in the Championship has gotten ge attention of the hierarchy at Crystal Palace as they want to move past Glasner. He took them from 17th on the table when he joined to 1st which has been one of the biggest comebacks in the Championship.
At this stage, there has been no official approach or confirmation from Crystal Palace, and the link remains speculative. Other managers are also understood to be under consideration, meaning Lampard is one of several options rather than a guaranteed appointment.
