Former Wales assistant manager Osian Roberts is set to be appointed as Patrick Vieira's number two at Crystal Palace.
The Welshman announced earlier in July he had resigned from his role as technical director at Morocco after nearly two years at the helm.
Roberts had previously been a long-serving member of staff at the Football Association of Wales, where he oversaw the training programme on which Vieira completed his coaching badges, but he will now continue his journey in the Premier League.
