Crystal Palace have reportedly approached Middlesbrough manager Michael Carrick as a potential candidate to become their manager.
The Eagles first had contact with Carrick last season after parting ways with Patrick Vieira, before Roy Hodgson ended up coming back for a second spell at Selhurst Park.
The former Manchester United and England midfielder has done a hugely impressive job at Middlesbrough, and it’s long been felt that he would soon be snapped up by a Premier League club.
With Palace now thinking about long-term successors for Hodgson, it seems Carrick’s name is coming up again, along with Vincent Kompany at Burnley, and recently-sacked Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper.
