Coach Pierre Sage leaves Lens and signs for Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace has announced the appointment of Pierre Sage as their new head coach. Sage, who was named the best coach in Ligue 1 and led Lens to their first-ever French Cup victory in 28 years, signed a three-year contract with the club. He also helped Lens qualify for the UEFA Champions League, marking only their fourth appearance in the competition. Sage expressed excitement about joining Crystal Palace, citing the club's history and recent achievements. Lens confirmed that Sage wished to leave, leading to an agreement with Crystal Palace, though financial details were not disclosed.

“O Crystal Palace tem a satisfação de comunicar a nomeação de Pierre Sage como treinador. Foi o treinador do ano na Ligue 1 e venceu a Taça de França. Sage assinou um contrato de três épocas para comandar os ‘the eagles’”, informou o Palace.

O clube inglês lembra que o treinador, de 47 anos, levou o Lens à sua primeira conquista da Taça de França, numa final que o clube não alcançava há 28 anos, além de qualificar o emblema francês para a Liga dos Campeões, na que será apenas uma quarta presença.

“É fantástico estar aqui no Crystal Palace. Estou entusiasmado com a história do clube e com as épocas recentes. Oliver Glasner [anterior treinador] conseguiu coisas maravilhosas e agora tenho de fazer o mesmo”, disse o técnico, citado pelo clube.

Do lado do Lens, o emblema informou ter recebido do treinador a manifestação de uma vontade e, como tal, houve um acordo com o Crystal Palace para a transferência de Sage, mas sem adiantar pormenores financeiros.
