Former Crystal Palace boss lands new role

Former Crystal Palace boss Frank de Boer has been appointed the new manager of United Arab Emirates side Al Jazira.

The former Inter Milan and Atalanta manager has signed a two-year deal at the Mohammed Bin Zayed Stadium and has landed his first managerial role since leaving the Dutch national side.

De Boer was handed the Crystal Palace job in 2017 after Sam Allardyce left the club. However, the former Rangers and Barcelona defender was sacked after losing his first four Premier League games in charge of the Eagles.

His only win during his 77 days in charge at Selhurst Park came in a 2-1 victory over Ipswich Town in the second round of the EFL Cup. De Boer was replaced by Roy Hodgson, who guided the club to Premier League safety.
