Former Watford boss Walter Mazzarri is on Crystal Palace’s radar, according to reports in Italy.
Mazzarri left the Hornets after a turbulent season where they finished just one place above the drop zone.
The 55-year-old coach could not speak English, and consequently, struggled to communicate with his players.
But Tutto Mercato says the Eagles have shortlisted Mazzarri to replace Sam Allardyce at Selhurst Park.

Marco Silva, Chris Coleman and Fulham manager Slavisa Jokanovic have also been linked with the vacant Palace job.
Meanwhile, managerless Leeds are understood to be keen on bringing Mazzarri to Elland Road.
Watford ended the season under Mazzarri with six successive defeats, and fans turned on the Italian.
