New York Jets Owner Woody Johnson Buys 43% Stake In Premier League Club Crystal Palace
Premier League side Crystal Palace announced on Monday that Johnson has signed 바카라a legally binding contract바카라 to buy the shares of fellow American John Textor, who has a 43% stake in the London club
Premier League side Crystal Palace announced on Monday that Johnson has signed 바카라a legally binding contract바카라 to buy the shares of fellow American John Textor, who has a 43% stake in the London club.
Reports have placed the price between $220 million and $260 million.
바카라Whilst the completion is pending approval from the Premier League and Women바카라s Super League, we do not envisage any issues and look forward to welcoming Woody as a partner and director of the club,바카라 Palace said in a statement.
바카라We would like to go on record to thank John Textor for his contribution over the past four years and wish him every success for the future.바카라
Johnson submitted a bid to buy Chelsea in 2022 but was unsuccessful.
The sale of Textor바카라s shares boosts Palace바카라s hopes of playing in the Europa League next season, having qualified thanks to its FA Cup final victory over Manchester City last month.
Textor is also a shareholder in French side Lyon, which is set to enter the same competition, and under UEFA multi-club ownership rules, it looked as if Palace could miss out.
Steve Parish, a co-owner of Palace along with Textor바카라s fellow Americans Josh Harris and David Blitzer, will remain chairman and in overall control of the club.
