Tottenham deemed favourites to beat German club to Oliver Glasner
According to reports, Oliver Glasner is more likely to end up at Tottenham Hotspur this summer, even though he has already held talks with a Bundesliga club over their managerial vacancy.
Those who have followed Spurs Web’s coverage would be aware that a number of managers working in the English top-flight are now rumoured to be on Tottenham’s radar as the North London club start doing groundwork on a potential replacement for Ange Postecoglou.
It has been widely reported over recent weeks that Andoni Iraola is Tottenham’s top target, while other sources have claimed that Spurs are also keeping an eye on both Marco Silva and Thomas Frank as backup options.
More recently, it emerged that Tottenham are also considering a shock move for Oliver Glasner, whose stock has grown since he replaced Roy Hodgson at Selhurst Park last season.
Oliver Glasner more likely to end up at Tottenham than Leipzig
A new report in BILD (as relayed by Sport Witness) has revealed that Leipzig have now held ‘concrete negotiations’ with the Palace boss.
The outlet says that the Bundesliga club have identified Glasner as their number one choice to fill the vacancy left by Marco Rose’s departure.
However, the report says that the Austrian coach is more likely to end up at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium than the Red Bull Arena this summer if the North London club decide to make a serious move for him.
Crystal Palace are determined to hold onto Glasner
Despite the ongoing speculation over the Palace boss’s future, he is far from certain to leave Selhurst Park this summer.
In fact, it was reported by Football Insider last month that Palace are set to open talks with Glasner regarding a new contract.
The report claimed that the 50-year-old is happy at the South London club and is keen to build on the foundations he has laid at the club so far.
