Ghana international, Jordan Ayew, will be working with a new manager at Crystal Palace, after the club announced the appointment of former Eintracht Frankfurt boss Oliver Glasner.

The 49-year-old Austrian replaces Roy Hodgson, who stepped down on February 19.

Palace are 16th in the Premier League after 10 defeats in the past 16 games.

Glasner has signed a contract until June 2026 and will be in charge for Saturday's home game against Burnley.

"I am very happy to join Crystal Palace," said Glasner.

"I am looking forward to working with the talented squad, meeting the club's supporters and experiencing the Selhurst Park atmosphere I have heard so much about," he said.

In 2022, Glasner joined Frankfurt, winning the Europa League during his first season in charge.

After guiding Frankfurt to the knockout stages of the Champions League last year, the Austrian left the club at the end of the season with 12 months left on his contract, following a 10-match winless run in the Bundesliga.

Ayew will not be the first Ghanaian Glasner has worked with during his career, as it was the Austrian who brought in Ghana winger, Samuel Tetteh, to LASK during his time with the Austian Bundesliga side.
