According to The Sun, Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner is being considered by Bayer Leverkusen who sacked Erik ten Hag yesterday.
Glasner has cemented his position as one of the best managers in the Premier League.
The Austrian manager has recently guided Palace to success in the FA Cup and the Community Shield. On their way to silverware, they beat Manchester City and Liverpool, showing their capability to compete with the best teams in the country.
Leverkusen want Oliver Glasner to replace Ten Hag
Surprisingly, Leverkusen sacked Ten Hag yesterday after only appointing him a few weeks ago.

Glasner believes that despite their recent success, Palace struggled in the summer transfer window and failed to make the most of the opportunity to strengthen their squad.
The manager is also unhappy with the sale of Eberechi Eze to Arsenal, a player who was instrumental in Palace’s recent success.
