Glasner Bombshell: Crystal Palace Boss Set to Ignite Europe’s Managerial Domino in 2026
Fabrizio Romano has dropped a major transfer-related revelation that could reshape the managerial landscape heading into 2026, with Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner firmly at the centre of attention.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano revealed that Glasner has decided not to sign a new contract with Crystal Palace, a decision made after extensive internal discussions. Crucially, the choice is not driven by money, but by long-term vision, project alignment, and footballing ideas.
Glasner’s stock has risen dramatically after delivering an extraordinary spell at Selhurst Park. Over the past year, the Austrian coach has guided Palace to two historic trophies, an achievement widely regarded as one of the most surprising success stories in European football. This has come despite significant squad changes and player sales, underlining his tactical adaptability and leadership.
Romano described Glasner as “one of the most appreciated managers in Europe” and warned fans to remember this moment, hinting that the coming months could trigger a managerial domino effect across top clubs.
As elite sides across Europe begin planning for the next cycle, Glasner is expected to emerge as a prime target when the summer window approaches. Palace may still enjoy his brilliance for now, but the countdown to a major move appears to have begun.
