Crystal Palace are considering a host of names to replace Roy Hodgson.

72-year-old Hodgson has announced he will leave the club at the end of this season.

Former Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has emerged as an early front-runner to replace Hodgson.

Sky Sports says ex-Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe, Swansea City coach Steve Cooper and Barnsley boss Valerian Ismael are also contenders.

Ex-Arsenal winger Freddie Ljungberg - who was interim manager of the Gunners before Mikel Arteta's appointment - and Fulham manager Scott Parker are also being considered by the Palace hierarchy.
