Crystal Palace receive green light to sign £26m target
Palace celebrated Conference League glory in Leipzig. Chris Richards hailed a family spirit, said the team deserved it and joked about Oliver Glasner staying longer as the club returned to Europe.
Palace have shifted focus to Dino Toppmöller and could move for a £26m relegated target after completing in-person checks, with a green light to pursue what could be his first signing.
Palace are exploring a move for Lens head coach Pierre Sage after first-choice Andoni Iraola was expected to join Liverpool. Lens won the French Cup, earned Champions League qualification and Sage has two years left on his deal.
Former Palace manager Oliver Glasner is high on Milan’s shortlist. A meeting is expected early next week when he will present his staff and a detailed plan, with financial terms and sporting direction still to be settled.
