Frank de Boer is 'very excited' by the prospect of managing in the Premier League according to his brother, as his appointment at Crystal Palace boss looks to be edging closer.

De Boer has been offered the manager's role at Selhurst Park following the surprise resignation of Sam Allardyce last month.

His brother, fellow ex-Holland international Ronald de Boer, seemed to confirm the move by saying his sibling was thrilled by the opportunity, although stopped short of saying anything is yet officially done.
