Sean Dyche is reportedly the leading candidate for the Crystal Palace job if the club decides to sack manager Pierre Sage.

The former Watford, Burnley, Everton and Nottingham Forest boss has been identified as the frontrunner by the Telegraph, although that report is behind a subscription paywall.

Talksport reports that former Brentford manager Thomas Frank and ex-Wolves boss Vitor Pereira could also be considered for the position. Former Ferencvaros manager Robbie Keane is also said to be among the potential candidates.

The reports concern a possible change in the Palace dugout, with Dyche’s candidacy specifically dependent on Sage leaving his role.
