Crystal Palace goes as a arbitration for sport on the feedback of the Europa League

Crystal Palace posted an official call with the Sport Arbitration Court after being gone from the Europa League to the conference league by UEFA for violating multi-club property rules.

The row comes to the UEFA rule that no person or business can have a decisive influence on more than one club in competition in a European tournament.

John Textor, the American businessman behind Eagle Football Group, has important actions in Crystal Palace and Lyon.

UEFA ruled that Palace has not shown proof of restructuring of ownership by the deadline of March 1.

Consequently, Lyon remains in the Europa League, and Palace is ready for the conference league, Nottingham Forest taking its place in the second level competition in Europe.

Palace seeks to cancel the decision of the UEFA and recover its place from the Europa League, which would be at the expense of Lyon or Forest.

The palace confirmed by case sought to take the place of Forest or Lyon in the Europa League.

The club maintains that Textor has never had decisive control in Selhurst Park.

The president of the palace, Steve Parish, had previously declared to the football podcast of the rest: “We know, unequivocally, that John (Textor) had not had a decisive influence on the club.

“We know that we have proven that, beyond any reasonable doubt, because it is a fact.” UEFA, however, rejected the defense of Palace.

A final verdict was expected no later than August 11, before the group phase of the Europa League, which begins on September 24.

If the call fails, it is likely that Nottingham Forest – who finished seventh in the Premier League – will take the place of the palace in the Europa League.

The case has raised new questions about UEFA consistency in applying multi-club property rules.

The owner of Nottingham Forest, Evangelos Marinakis, satisfied the criteria of UEFA last year by putting his interests in a blind trust, while palace restructuring was deemed insufficient.

Textor agreed to sell his participation in Palace to the owner of New York Jets, Woody Johnson, but the move arrived too late to satisfy UEFA.

The result of the call could have important consequences not only for Crystal Palace, but also for the application of multi-club property rules through European football, potentially affecting club owners, including Manchester City and Manchester United.
