Glassner Continues to Make History with Crystal Palace
The Austrian coach Oliver Glasner continued to make history after leading Crystal Palace to win the UEFA Europa Conference League title by defeating Rayo Vallecano 1-0 in the final, granting the English club a historic European title and officially qualifying them for the Europa League next season.
This achievement is an extension of an exceptional period that Glasner is experiencing with Crystal Palace since he took over coaching the team in 2024, where he succeeded in transforming the club into a real contender for titles.
The team was led to win the FA Cup in 2025 after defeating Manchester City in the final, marking the first major title in the club's history. They then added the FA Community Shield at the expense of Liverpool, and tonight achieved Crystal Palace's first European title in history.
Glasner's coaching career reveals continuous success in almost all of its stages. It began between 2012 and 2014 as an assistant coach at Red Bull Salzburg under Roger Schmidt, where he gained his first experience in the professional world, before taking on his first role as head coach with SV Ried in the 2014-2015 season, leading the team to qualify for the Europa League.
In 2015, he took over coaching LASK, where his true breakthrough began. He led the club to promotion to the Austrian Bundesliga in 2017, then achieved runner-up status and transformed the team into one of Austria's leading clubs.
He then moved to German club Wolfsburg between 2019 and 2021, leading the team to fourth place in the Bundesliga and qualifying for the UEFA Champions League, with his attacking style based on high pressing becoming prominent.
One of his most notable achievements before moving to England was with Eintracht Frankfurt, where he led the club to win the UEFA Europa League title in 2022, reached the final of the German Cup in 2023, and advanced to the round of 16 in the UEFA Champions League. He then began a successful new chapter with Crystal Palace, establishing himself as one of the leading coaches in Europe in recent years.
