Oliver Glasner has announced that he will leave Crystal Palace at the end of the season, and the Eagles are looking to bring in a quality replacement.<\/strong><\/p>\n

They have identified Andoni Iraola as a target. According to a report from Football Insider, the 43-year-old Spanish manager would be open to taking over at the London club if they manage to secure European qualification for the next season.<\/p>\n

Andoni Iraola sets a condition for Palace<\/h2>\n

They are currently in the semi-finals of the UEFA Europa Conference League and would need to win the tournament to qualify for the UEFA Europa League next season. It remains to be seen whether Glasner can deliver a major European trophy before leaving the club. It will also help them bring in a quality manager.<\/p>\n

Iraola has done an excellent job with Bournemouth with limited resources, and there is no doubt that he would be an excellent addition to Crystal Palace as well. They have talented players at their disposal, and they will need to bring in a quality manager in the summer.<\/p>\n

Glasner has helped them win the FA Cup and the Community Shield in recent months. He will finish a high and deliver a European trophy as well.<\/p>\n

Iraola on the Chelsea radar<\/h2>\n

Meanwhile, the 43-year-old Spanish manager is a target for Chelsea as well. They are looking to bring in a quality long-term replacement for Liam Rosenior.<\/p>\n

The opportunity to manage the blues could be more exciting for Iraola. They are a bigger club with far more resources. They could help him challenge for major trophies. It remains to be seen what Iraola decides.<\/p>\n

Iraola has certainly shown that he has the pedigree to manage bigger clubs, and he could be an interesting acquisition for Chelsea as well.<\/p>\n
