Patrick Vieira

Crystal Palace have today confirmed the sacking of manager Patrick Vieira with immediate effect after a run of poor form.

Just 18 months after being appointed as Palace manager, Patrick Vieira has been sacked from his position. During last season, Vieira led Crystal Palace to a 12th-place finish. This season, however, things have not gone to plan and they find themselves without a win in 2023. They are currently in 12th place with 27 points from 27 games, just 3 points above the relegation zone.

Crystal Palace released a statement confirming the news. “It is with enormous regret that this difficult decision has been made. Ultimately, results in recent months have placed us in a precarious league position, and we felt a change is necessary to give us the best chance of retaining Premier League status.” Said Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish.

Crystal Palace will play against league leaders Arsenal during the weekend at the Emirates Stadium.
