Palace face competition from Southampton for managerial duo

Crystal Palace’s hunt for a new manager has been dragging on for some time now, and it looks as though they’re facing competition from Southampton for a couple of managerial targets.

It had been previously reported that Frank De Boer was under consideration from Palace, while a move for Mauricio Pellegrino also looked to have gathered pace.

However, according to the Telegraph, Saints are set to hold talks with both bosses as they look to find a suitable manager ahead of the coming campaign.

The south coast outfit sacked Claude Puel last night and have actively began their search to find a new man to take charge of the club, with De Boer and Pellegrino the two men named on a three-man shortlist by the Telegraph.

However, Palace have reportedly lined both of these up in a bid to replace Sam Allardyce, who departed the club last month.

It looks as though the Eagles are going to need to speed things up if they are to land one of the two targeted bosses.
