Crystal Palace could be kicked out of Europe as owners’ blind trust move backfires
Crystal Palace celebrated their first major trophy by winning the FA Cup, securing a Europa League spot for the next season. However, they face potential disqualification due to UEFA rules, as major shareholder John Textor’s attempt to place his stake in a blind trust was rejected after the deadline. With Textor’s dual ownership of Olympique Lyon and fellow investor David Blitzer’s stake in Brondby complicating matters, Palace’s participation in Europe is uncertain, potentially allowing Nottingham Forest to take their place.
