Roy Hodgson will continue as Crystal Palace manager next season after signing a new deal with the club.

The 75-year-old returned to Selhurst Park on a short-term basis in March after Patrick Vieira was relieved of his duties.

After signing on for more, Hodgson said: "I am immensely pleased and proud to be extending my time at Crystal Palace, and I would like to thank the chairman and sporting director for their continued faith in me. 

"I know what a fantastic squad we have here. It's a great blend of youth and potential, alongside experienced players with Premier League and international pedigree. 

"I have spoken with the chairman at length and we agreed that we must be ambitious in getting the most out of such talent. 

"As such, we have set ourselves the target of a top-half finish, which we believe is eminently achievable with such a fabulous group of players and the most magnificent supporters who get behind the team, week in, week out."

Palace picked up 18 points from their 10 matches under Hodgson's rule last term, which saw them finish 11th in the table and comfortably avoid relegation to the Championship. 

The former England manager previously spent four seasons in charge of the South London outfit, eventually stepping away from the job in May 2021.

In 2018-19, Hodgson helped the Eagles achieve their highest ever points total in a 38-game Premier League season (49 points). 

Palace kick off their 2023-24 Premier League campaign with a trip to newly-promoted Sheffield United on August 12, before hosting Arsenal on August 19.

The club confirmed that Paddy McCarthy will return as assistant manager, alongside coaches Ray Lewington and Dean Kiely.
