Crystal Palace have opened talks over a new contract for coach Oliver Glasner.
The 50-year-old is once again emerging as a target for rival clubs with Red Bull Leipzig among his admirers.
Palace rebuffed interest from Bayern Munich last season and, while there is a year left on Glasner's contract plus an option to extend, there is a desire to reward the Austrian for the progress he has made at Selhurst Park.
Palace are 11th in the Premier League and face Fulham in the FA Cup quarter finals.
They also need stability ahead of a summer where they anticipate offers for key players Adam Wharton, Marc Guehi, Jean Philippe Mateta and Eberechi Eze.
Elsewhere, Ryan Lowe has been appointed manager of Wigan Athletic.
