Roy Hodgson agrees Palace contract extension

Crystal Palace Football Club are delighted to confirm that manager Roy Hodgson has signed a one-year contract extension, which will see him remain at Selhurst Park until the end of the 2020/21 campaign.

Croydon-born Hodgson, 72, took charge of his local club in September 2017 and has led the club to respectable 11th and 12th placed finishes in the last two seasons – the club’s fifth and sixth consecutive campaigns in the top-flight respectively.

Hodgson has today committed to extend his managerial career beyond 44 years, in what has become an unparalleled existence in football management at the highest level.
