UEFA delay ruling on Crystal Palace Europa eligibilty
- UEFA postponed its decision on June 30, 2025, on whether Crystal Palace can enter next season's Europa League due to ownership rule concerns.
- This delay followed concerns around John Textor's controlling interests in both Palace and French club Lyon, which also qualified for the Europa League.
- Lyon faces relegation to the French second tier due to financial issues, with their participation in Europe dependent on the outcome of their appeal against this decision.
- Last week, Textor reached an agreement to sell his 43% ownership in Palace to Woody Johnson, the owner of the New York Jets, and earlier on Monday, he relinquished his leadership roles at Lyon.
- Palace's Europa League eligibility now hinges on UEFA's evaluation of multi-club ownership rules and Lyon's appeal outcome, which could affect Palace's European competition chances and revenues.
