Crystal Palace coach Steve Reid has left the London club due to ‘personal reasons’, the Evening Standard reports.
Reid had been a part of Palace manager Roy Hodgson’s backroom staff since his his appointment last season, joining the club just days after the former-England manager.
Prior to joining Palace, Reid had a prolonged stint at Reading where he worked under four different managers.
Reid, 37, took to Twitter to announce his departure from the club, stating that he will be taking a break from football:
Just want to say a massive thanks to everybody at Crystal Palace for an unbelievable time at the club.
A special club with special fans. Unfortunately for personal reasons it’s time to take a break for a while.
Been a privilege to work alongside the staff and a fantastic group of players.
Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish replied to Reid’s tweet wishing him luck in the future:
Brillaint [sic] to have you with us last season Steven, made a fantastic contribution, good luck for the future from everyone at Crystal Palace.
