Crystal Palace set to sack manager Pierre Sage after disastrous start

Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports Crystal Palace are on the verge of sacking manager Pierre Sage, just months after his summer appointment following Oliver Glasner's departure. The Eagles sit rock-bottom of the Premier League after Sunday's 3-1 home drubbing by Liverpool, pushing Selhurst Park hierarchy to actively hunt a replacement.

Sage's tenure lasted barely half a season. Palace's next test is a tricky away trip to Coventry City — a match that could accelerate the decision if results don't improve. For the millions of Nigerian fans tracking the EPL weekly, this chaos at Palace means fantasy team headaches, shifted betting odds, and yet another managerial carousel to monitor.

Romano's track record on managerial moves is strong, but the club hasn't confirmed anything officially. If the axe falls, Palace become the latest Premier League side to panic-change managers mid-season — a trend that rarely yields instant fixes.

Will you bench Palace assets in your fantasy squad this gameweek, or back the chaos to produce a bounce against Coventry?
