Palace manager Sage sacked with club bottom of Premier League

Sage won five of 16 matches in all competitions as Palace stayed bottom after two wins in 10 league games, the club said.

  • Crystal Palace Football Club announced on Thursday that manager Pierre Sage has left his role, with three coaching staff members—Jamal Alioui, Damien Della Santa, and Sandy Guichard—also departing the club.
  • Sage's dismissal followed a 3-1 defeat to Liverpool on Sunday, November 8, 2026, leaving the team at the bottom of the Premier League table after conceding 24 goals in 10 matches.
  • Pressure mounted following a 5-0 loss to Brighton & Hove Albion last month; Sage won only five of his 16 matches in charge after replacing Oliver Glasner in the summer.
  • Reports suggest former Brentford boss Thomas Frank is the leading candidate to succeed Sage, with the club seeking a replacement during the November international break.
  • Palace also considers candidates including Sean Dyche and Frank Lampard as the team remains two points from safety and prepares to face Sunderland in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals next month.
