Crystal Palace is intensifying efforts to secure Andoni Iraola as the successor to Oliver Glasner, who will leave the club at the end of the season. The club is prepared to offer Iraola a lucrative three-year contract, aiming to entice him despite interest from other Premier League teams, including Chelsea. Iraola confirmed last month his intention to leave Bournemouth, where he has led the team close to European qualification. Palace hopes that the allure of European football, contingent on winning the UEFA Europa Conference League, will influence Iraola's decision. Glasner, who led Palace to their first major trophy in the FA Cup last year, will part ways with the club this summer. Other managerial candidates being considered include Frank Lampard, Kieran McKenna, and Thomas Frank, as well as Marcelino García Toral, who is leaving Villarreal after successful seasons.
