Woody Johnson makes 190m bid for Textor's Crystal Palace shares as Uefa delays decision
Briefly

Woody Johnson, owner of the New York Jets, has proposed a $190 million bid to buy John Textor's 44.9% stake in Crystal Palace. The offer comes as UEFA delays a decision regarding the club's qualification for next season's Europa League. Backed by co-chair Steve Parish, Johnson's offer falls significantly short of Textor's valuation of $240 million. Despite the lower bid, Textor seems open to negotiations and may accept up to $50 million less, considering the interest from minority investors, including a consortium with NBA star Jimmy Butler.
