Oliver Glasner expects to decide in the coming weeks whether he will sign a new contract at Crystal Palace<\/a> and has said Marc Gu\u00e9hi could be sold this month if his \u201cthreshold\u201d is met.<\/p>\n

Glasner is the bookmakers\u2019 early favourite to be the permanent replacement for Ruben Amorim at Manchester United. The Austrian\u2019s contract expires this summer and the ambitious 51-year-old is understood to be open then to joining United or another big club.<\/p>\n

Glasner held discussions with the Palace chair, Steve Parish, over a new deal this season but talks were put on ice during a hectic run of fixtures, the FA Cup winners playing two games a week since the end of August owing to European commitments. He revealed more talks are expected after Palace begin their FA Cup defence against Macclesfield on Saturday but offered no guarantees he will stay.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think in the next weeks we will intensify the talks,\u201d Glasner said. \u201cEveryone gets three days off after Macclesfield and then we have to target four regular weeks and in those weeks we will intensify the talks and I expect to find a final decision.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked whether the uncertainty over his future was a distraction, he said: \u201cI don\u2019t really care about it, because I can\u2019t affect it if there are rumours, speculation. That\u2019s why I don\u2019t want to respond to it, because I can sign today, or a player can sign today, a contract extension and leave in summer \u2026 The length of a contract in these times doesn\u2019t say anything about your future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Manchester City are weighing up a bid for Gu\u00e9hi, with Palace thought to want \u00a340m for their captain despite his contract expiring in the summer. Glasner conceded that the England defender\u2019s future was out of his hands. \u201cEverybody wants that he plays for Crystal Palace, signs a new contract and stays here for ever,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn the other side, there\u2019s the situation that the contract ends in the summer and if somebody is coming, there will be a moment when the club says: \u2018Now the financial issue is more important than the sport issue.\u2019 We have to do it and try to get the best. That\u2019s why I\u2019m always saying: \u2018I don\u2019t know.\u2019 Because this is different.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere will be a threshold where the club has to say [sell] \u2026 If the player says: \u2018I want to leave\u2019 and the money is above the threshold, it will happen. I\u2019m not so naive not to know that if a massive offer comes from City and Marc wants to do it, it will happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Injury-hit Palace will be without Nathaniel Clyne and Jefferson Lerma against Aston Villa on Wednesday, although Chris Richards will be back among the substitutes after a foot injury. Glasner said he was in \u201cconstant discussion\u201d with Parish over adding reinforcements in January after signing Brennan Johnson from Tottenham for a club record \u00a335m but denied that his future could depend on how much backing he gets in the transfer market.<\/p>\n

\u201cBelieve me, nothing that happens in the transfer window, nothing, affects my decision, in both directions,\u201d he said. Glasner also said Romain Esse is expected to join Coventry on loan until the end of the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Oliver Glasner expects to decide in the coming weeks whether he will sign a new contract at Crystal…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":679681,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4100],"tags":[94,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-679680","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115853270022670409","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/679680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=679680"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/679680\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/679681"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=679680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=679680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=679680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
