But has since agreed to sell his Eagles shares to New York Jets owner Woody Johnson.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s understood this purchase is near completion, but Johnson has to pass the Premier League owners&#8217; and directors&#8217; test before it can all be legally agreed.<\/p>\n<p>Textor also announced last week that he resigned from his leadership responsibilities at Lyon &#8211; with Michael Gerlinger now the chief executive and Washington Spirit and London City Lionesses owner Michele Kang as the chair and president.<\/p>\n<p>Kang has believed to have spearheaded Lyon&#8217;s relegation appeal &#8211; and it&#8217;s thought the French side have made a <em>&#8216;austerity plan&#8217;<\/em> to sort their finances out and were asked to raise \u20ac200m to help Lyon remain in Ligue

League<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Palace&#8217;s fate of playing in Europe now rests with another UEFA decision.<\/p>\n<p>With the Eagles stating from the start that John Textor wasn&#8217;t in control of the day-to-day runnings of the club.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s believed the Club Financial Control Body, that deals with multi-club ownership, will give a decision on Palace&#8217;s Europa League participation this week.<\/p>\n<p>Lyon were handed a \u20ac12.5m fine by UEFA for their financial breach &#8211; but cleared if they were moved back up to Ligue 1 and won their appeal &#8211; which they have.<\/p>\n<p>Palace, who returned to pre-season training this week, are hoping to join Aston Villa in the Europa League &#8211; the competition Tottenham won last season.<\/p>\n<p>There has also been talk of the Eagles moving down to the Europa Conference League to join Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n<p>However, in an added twist another Palace co-owner David Blitzer also has an interest in Danish side Brondby, who are in that competition too.<\/p>\n<p>If Palace aren&#8217;t allowed into any European competitions this season, it&#8217;s believed they will appeal to the <span

other big question surrounding the Crystal Palace Europa League saga.<\/p>\n<p>Is which clubs will benefit if the Eagles can&#8217;t play in Europe next season?<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, Nottingham Forest, who have already qualified for the Europa Conference League \u2013 would go up to the Europa League.<\/p>\n<p>Forest finished 7th in the Premier League in the 2024\/25 season.<\/p>\n<p>Then \u2013 look away now Palace fans.<\/p>\n<p>As the big story would be Palace\u2019s rivals Brighton getting European football as a result of the Eagles not being allowed to play in the Europa League.<\/p>\n<p>Brighton finished 8th in the Premier League, but with Forest moving up to the Europa \u2013 the Seagulls to take their Europa Conference League slot.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>If Crystal
