Crystal Palace are enjoying their best-ever Premier League campaign this season on the back of lifting the FA Cup last season due to Glasner’s expertise.
The 51-year-old has since guided Palace to back-to-back record points totals in the Premier League and is a hot topic amongst a number of clubs including Liverpool, who may sack manager Arne Slot over the next few weeks.
The Eagles have flourished under Glasner and as his contract winds down, reports link him with a move away from the side. Speaking this week, Parish said he and the board are prepared and are hoping to lock down Glasner’s future at the club.
“We’re in the muck and bullets of the season.
“It’s a difficult time to sit down and talk about these things, but also, there’s no doubt that I’m sure he wants to see if it’s a place he wants to be at and if the circumstances are right for him.
“We are building a club which I believe is going to be institutionally capable of taking care of itself. We have to keep raising our ambition every year. I’d love that to be with Oliver, but he’s going to make the best decision for him.
“It isn’t always about what I can do. People can rest assured it isn’t going to be about money (for Glasner’s salary) or a desire on anyone’s part - everyone would love Oliver to stay at the club. The club will do everything within reason to achieve that.
“I know people want him to stay desperately, and I want him to stay desperately. We hope we get the outcome we want, but we plan for everything else as well.”
The Austrian manager is out of contract in just over six months, and Liverpool as well as Manchester United are said to be interested in his services. Parish, however, seems calm about the situation as Glasner weighs up his options.
