On May 19, Biography published an article reporting on the selection of coaches by Red Bull Leipzig.

After a bad season, Leipzig's coach selection plans restart, but the club has not yet determined who will replace interim coach Jolt Loew in July.

club will clarify the coach's candidate by the end of May at the latest. According to Biography, Fabregas and Glasner on the shortlist have not yet given a refusal.

The club has held talks with the two coaches. If the Fabregas negotiations, which tend to stay in Italy or switch to Bundesliga rival Leverkusen, break down, Leipzig will focus on Glasner and start further negotiations. It is reported that Leipzig has not yet contacted Crystal Palace because both clubs have previously focused on the final season.

Glasner made history with Crystal Palace last Saturday. After defeating Manchester City 1-0 to win the FA Cup, the South London club won the first important championship in 120 years of team history.

This may increase the chance of signing Glasner. The coach may think that his mission in the club has been completed, after all, it will be extremely difficult to create new glory. History also shows that Glasner is accustomed to leaving at his peak, such as choosing to leave after leading Wolfsburg to qualify for the Champions League in 2021.

But Crystal Palace is also trying hard to keep Glasner, hoping to renew his contract until after 2026. Club chairman Steve Parish made it clear to the Sun on Sunday: "Glasner will continue to coach next season. The contract term is well known, and we need to negotiate how it will happen later. We hope to try to renew the contract, but all parties must be satisfied."

Obviously, this coach, who is also favored by Premier League Tottenham Hotspur, is not cheap. The latest rumor is about 20 million euros in termination.
