The shortest-serving coach in the England national team, Sam Allardyce, has found a new challenge - the 62-year-old specialist has signed a contract with Crystal Palace. The Eagles recently had to dismiss coach Alan Pardew because the team has dropped to 17th place in the Premier League. To save them from relegation, it is necessary as soon as possible, so Allardyce, who was out of work, seemed like the most suitable option. He has tied his future with the capital club for two and a half years. Previously in his career, he has coached Bolton, Blackburn, West Ham, and Sunderland. Crystal Palace is currently trailing the last team by just one point.
