Oliver Glasner confirmed he will not renew his contract with Crystal Palace when it expires this season. The German coach, who took the helm in 2022, guided the club to a mid‑table finish and a memorable Europa League run. Meanwhile, midfielder Guehi has agreed a move to Manchester City, adding depth to the Premier League giants.

Glasner's departure follows a season of mixed results, with Palace hovering just above the relegation zone after a shaky start. His tactical shift toward a high‑pressing style earned praise, but inconsistent performances left fans uneasy. Guehi's transfer signals City’s intent to bolster midfield options ahead of a congested fixture list.

Palace will launch a search for a new manager before the next season, with several candidates already on the shortlist. City will integrate Guehi into a squad that already boasts world‑class talent, aiming to deepen competition for the Premier League title. Fans and analysts alike will watch how these moves reshape both clubs' trajectories.
