Textor's involvement with both Palace and French club Lyon has put the club's spot in the Europa League at risk due to UEFA's rules on multi-club ownership. He is currently selling his 43 per cent stake in Palace to New York Jets owner Woody Johnson, but the outcome is uncertain.

Recently, Lyon won an appeal against their relegation from Ligue 1, which further complicates Palace's chances of playing in the Europa League. Despite winning the FA Cup last season, Textor thinks that the club would have achieved more success if he had more control over the team.

In a recent interview, Textor commented on Parish's leadership style, stating that the chairman's ambition is focused on avoiding relegation, whereas the club's goal should be to move up the league table.

Textor has insisted that he is not involved in the day-to-day running of the club, which would allow Palace to participate in the Europa League. When asked about the responsibility for the club's potential expulsion from the competition, Textor suggested that others, including the club's chairman, should take the blame.

Textor also emphasized his commitment to the club and its community, stating that he values collaboration between clubs and communities. He believes that this approach is essential to making football more inclusive and exciting for fans.

UEFA is set to make a decision on the situation at the end of the week, which could have significant implications for Crystal Palace.
