Oliver Glasner has confirmed he will leave Crystal Palace at the end of this season, having informed the chair, Steve Parish, in October that he wanted a new challenge, and said the captain, Marc Guéhi, is on the verge of joining Manchester City.

The Austrian, who led Palace to their first major trophy when they won the FA Cup last season, is out of contract in the summer and has been linked with Manchester United in recent weeks. Glasner said last week he was planning further talks with Parish to resolve his future but revealed in the buildup to Palace’s game at Sunderland on Saturday that he would be leaving the club.
