(Reuters) - Crystal Palace have reappointed Roy Hodgson as manager until the end of the season, the Premier League club said on Tuesday.
The 75-year-old succeeds Frenchman Patrick Vieira, who was sacked last week after a poor run of form left the team three points above the relegation zone.
Hodgson has been brought in to keep Palace in the top flight, a task he achieved for four seasons in a row with the London club between 2017-2021. "Crystal Palace is known for its fighting spirit, and I have no doubt that all our supporters will fight with us."
