Sogndal Overview

Oliver Glasner has emerged as AC Milan’s leading managerial candidate after a lengthy meeting with owner Gerry Cardinale and advisor Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The Austrian is understood to be intrigued by the prospect of working in Serie A, although Fulham are also monitoring his situation as they search for a potential successor to Marco Silva.

Brad Friedel has - during an exclusive interview with GOAL - sought to play down expectations around “poster boy” Christian Pulisic, but considers four other players to sit alongside ‘Captain America’ in the USMNT’s “undroppable” pool. The United States are considered to be working with a ‘Golden Generation’ of talent as a home World Cup is taken in.

Bayer Leverkusen has not yet officially parted ways with Kasper Hjulmand. Nevertheless, it is widely believed that the club will be looking for a new manager. However, the search for a suitable coach could well turn into a fiasco at the moment.

Crystal Palace have initiated formal discussions with former Eintracht Frankfurt head coach Dino Toppmoller as they search for a successor to Oliver Glasner. The South London club look set to repeat history by turning to another former Frankfurt boss to guide them forward following Glasner's decision to step down at the end of the campaign.
