Palace Sack Manager Sage After Poor Run
13 Nov
Summary
- Pierre Sage departs as Crystal Palace manager after less than five months.
- The Eagles have struggled, sitting bottom of the Premier League table.
- Thomas Frank is reportedly in advanced talks to become the next manager.
Crystal Palace Football Club has confirmed the departure of manager Pierre Sage, who lasted less than five months in the role. His exit follows a string of poor results in the Premier League, with the team currently occupying the bottom position. Sage's coaching staff, including Jamal Alioui, Damien Della Santa, and Sandy Guichard, have also left the club.
The team's struggles in the top flight are evident, having secured only two wins and one draw from ten matches. This has left them with a negative goal difference, having conceded 24 goals while scoring 10. Despite their league woes, Crystal Palace has shown promise in other competitions, notably reaching the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.
With the international break concluding, Crystal Palace is expected to appoint a new manager before their upcoming match against Coventry City on Saturday, November 21. Reports suggest that Thomas Frank, formerly of Tottenham and Brentford, is the leading candidate and is in advanced negotiations with the club.
