Roy Hodgson is set to be sacked by Crystal Palace after a U-turn from chairman Steve Parish, according to reports.
The 76-year-old returned to the club last year following the departure of Patrick Vieira and was given a one-year deal back in the summer.
However, Hodgson has overseen a turbulent season so far with the Eagles struggling for form.
They've won just six of their 24 Premier League matches, shipping 43 goals in the process, with the club just five points above the relegation zone.

Now, according to the Daily Mail, Hodgson is set to lose his job as a result of the team's shortcomings this season.
It's claimed chairman Steve Parish had originally intended to stick with the veteran until the summer.
However, with Palace's form worsening as the season has gone on, he's now set to lose his job before then instead.
The report says discussions are under way regarding who will replace Hodgson and the axe could fall before Monday's crunch showdown with Everton.
Palace are reportedly interested in former Eintracht Frankfurt coach Olivier Glasner.
Glasner is currently a free agent following his departure from the Bundesliga side in June.
He also has experience of working with SV Ried, LASK and Wfl Wolfsburg with the 49-year-old guiding Frankfurt to Europa League glory 18 months ago.
It's said Palace co-owner John Textor is 'pushing the merits of Glasner' and would back his appointment.
However, the Austrian isn't the only name in the frame when it comes to potentially replacing Hodgson.
Steve Cooper is under consideration, with the Englishman available following his recent sacking from Nottingham Forest.
Julen Lopetegui is another target, with the Spaniard previously working in the Premier League with Wolves.
And Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna is also in the club's sights as they plan for the long haul, having worked wonders at the Championship side.
However, the trio are all supposedly 'reluctant' to take the job at the current moment in time.
Palace were poor on Monday night as they slipped to a 3-1 defeat to Chelsea at Selhurst Park.
Conor Gallagher scored twice on his return to his old side, with Enzo Fernandez also on target for the Blues.
