From Aiglons to Eagles, Patrick Vieira discovered a true passion for falconry.
Indeed, the former French international, without a club since his dismissal by OGC Nice in December 2020, is the new coach of Crystal Palace.
The club from the southern suburbs of London, engaged in the Premier League next season, announced on Sunday on its website.
"Crystal Palace is delighted to confirm the appointment of Patrick Vieira as coach for the next three seasons," Crystal Place said in its official statement.
After a first European experience, to say the least, mixed on the Gym bench, the 98 world champion will discover the role of manager in a championship that he has known well as a player, with Arsenal (1995-2006) and Man City (2010-2011).
