Roy Hodgson, the manager of Crystal Palace, is currently stable in the hospital after falling ill during a training session.

Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson, at 76 years old, is currently stable and undergoing tests in the hospital after being taken ill during Thursday’s training session. The club had to cancel his scheduled press conference as a result of this unforeseen event, with the club releasing the following statement: “Unfortunately, today’s press conference will no longer take place as scheduled as Roy Hodgson was taken ill during this morning’s training session.”

This development comes as Crystal Palace prepares for their upcoming match against third-from-bottom Everton on Monday Night Football, a game that will be broadcast live on Sky Sports with a kick-off at 8 pm. Currently occupying the 15th position in the Premier League, the Eagles are five points above the relegation zone.

It’s worth noting that Hodgson recently marked his 200th match as the manager of Crystal Palace, with his team facing a 3-1 defeat against Chelsea at Selhurst Park. The experienced manager, who previously served as the England boss, is now in his second spell in charge of the south London club, having returned for the final 10 games of last season.

In the midst of this situation, there are reports from Sky Germany suggesting that Crystal Palace is on the verge of announcing the appointment of Oliver Glasner as the replacement for Hodgson. This potential managerial change adds another layer of intrigue to the unfolding events at Crystal Palace.
