- Lyon's appeal and potential relegation will impact the final verdict.
Crystal palace
FA Cup winners Crystal Palace will have to wait to discover if they can participate in next season’s Europa League after UEFA revealed it needed more time to make a decision.
Palace’s place in the competition is under threat due to UEFA’s multi-club ownership rules, preventing teams under the same ownership from participating in the same European competition.
Palace co-owner John Textor, who has agreed to sell his 44% stake in the club to New York Jets owner Woody Johnson, also has a stake in French club Lyon, who qualified for the Europa League.
A verdict on the situation was expected on Monday, but the European football body has chosen to delay its decision following Lyon’s appeal against their relegation to Ligue 2 due to financial issues.
The seven-time French champions have agreed to forfeit their place in the competition should their appeal be unsuccessful.
UEFA, meanwhile, has not given a timeline for the verdict, but have stated that further details will be announced “in due course”.
