Takes to the Crystal Palace after a great time in France

Frenchman Pierre Sage has been appointed as the new manager of English Premier League club Crystal Palace, taking over from Oliver Glasner who stepped down after the last season. Sage previously managed Lille in the French league, where he led them to their first-ever Ligue 1 title and secured a spot in the Champions League. He signed a three-year contract with Crystal Palace. The club finished as runners-up in the Premier League last season and won the Europa League, qualifying for European competition next season.

Frakkinn Pierre Sage hefur verið ráðinn knattspyrnustjóri enska úrvalsdeildarfélagsins Crystal Palace. Sage tekur við stjórastöðunni af Oliver Glasner sem lét af störfum eftir síðasta tímabil.

Sage, sem skrifar undir þrigjga ára samning á Selhurst Park, var áður þjálfari Lens í frönsku úrvalsdeildini og var þar valinn þjálfari ársins á sínu fyrsta tímabili með liðið.

Undir stjórn Sage varð Lens franskur bikarmeistari á síðasta tímabili, í fyrsta skipti í sögu félagsins, og tryggði sér Meistaradeildarsæti.

Þar áður hafði Frakkin þjálfað Lyon í sömu deild sem og lið Chambéry.

Nú tekur hann við Crystal Palace eftir eftirminnilega tíma liðsins undir stjórn Glasner. Crystal Palace varð enskur bikarmeistari á þar síðasta tímabili og nú á nýafstöðnu tímabil vann liðið Sambandsdeild Evrópu og mun því spila í Evrópudeildinni á næsta tímabili.

Pierre is Palace 🦅

We are delighted to confirm the appointment of Pierre Sage as Manager.
