Crystal Palace’s European Dreams at Risk: What Hidden Crisis Is Shaking Football’s Foundations?
Fans had already sensed trouble ahead. Over a year ago, Palace supporters unfurled banners at Selhurst Park decrying multi-club ownership and directly criticizing Textor. These early warnings were largely ignored, with ownership focused instead on short-term gains rather than long-term compliance. Now, with UEFA’s scrutiny intensifying, the consequences of that neglect may be severe.
According to current reports, Palace missed a key March deadline to place the club in a blind trust – an administrative move that might have resolved this situation. Evangelos Marinakis used this method with Nottingham Forest to avoid a similar conflict between Forest and Olympiakos. Palace’s decision not to act in time, whether through oversight or reluctance to tempt fate before their Europa qualification was secure, has proven costly.
