Frank de Boer sacked by Crystal Palace after four games

in steem •  7 years ago 

Crystal Palace have fired Frank de Boer after just four games in charge.

The Dutchman was hired to replace Sam Allardyce in late June, signing a three-year contract, but has lasted less than three months in the job.

The Eagles have started their Premier League campaign with defeats to Huddersfield, Liverpool, Swansea and Burnley, conceding seven goals and scoring none.

But the club have relieved the ex-Ajax and Inter coach of his duties, making the news official on Monday.

"Crystal Palace Football Club have this morning parted company with Frank de Boer," a statement read.

De Boer lasted just 85 days in charge at Inter, but his time at Palace was even shorter at 77, while no Premier League manager has been fired after so few games in charge.

Former England manager Roy Hodgson is being tipped to take over the Eagles.
