""It's going to be interesting because, for fans of certain clubs who need managers, you'll be thinking 'I wonder if we can get that person or that person'," former Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha said on BBC Radio 5 Live. "It's the World Cup to add a bit of nuance to that as well. Some managers becoming available at what seems like the best time. Some managers' contracts being available. "Some managers trying to do well for their nations at the World Cup at the summer. It's really exciting and it feels like there's going to be a reset at so many clubs.""
"On Friday, Crystal Palace boss Glasner announced that he will be leaving when his contract expires at the end of the season. Sources told BBC Sport that Glasner was offered a new deal last summer, but he confirmed that he told chairman Steve Parish in October he would not sign a new contract. Fulham boss Marco Silva's contract runs out at the end of the season."
A significant summer of managerial change looks likely with several Premier League managers leaving or becoming available because of contract expirations and the upcoming World Cup. Crystal Palace will need to replace Oliver Glasner, who confirmed he will depart at the end of the season after declining a new deal. Manchester United manager Michael Carrick is in place only until June. Fulham boss Marco Silva and Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola also face contract uncertainty, with Iraola linked to major clubs if he seeks a new challenge. The World Cup may prompt international coaching moves and a broad club-level reset.
