Introduction 1-Newspaper: Crystal Palace owners are considering selling the club

To add details

June 15 (Reuters Sports Service) - The American owners of Premier League club Crystal Palace are considering selling the club, the Financial Times reported on Monday, citing informed sources.

The report added that the club has appointed bankers from the Ryan Group to handle the sale process, and that it is open to a variety of options, including selling the entire club.

Crystal Palace did not immediately respond to a request for comment .

Crystal Palace is led by four "major shareholders": American investors Josh Harris, David Blitzer and Woody Johnson, along with devoted fan Steve Parish, who has served as the club's chief executive since 2010.

Johnson, the former US ambassador to Britain and co-owner of the New York Jets, completed the purchase of his stake in Crystal Palace from Eagle Football Holdings in July 2025. British media reported the deal was worth approximately £190 million ($120.70 million), with Johnson buying a 43 percent stake.

This report came on the day that Palace announced the appointment of French coach Pierre Sage to succeed Oliver Glasner after a historic period of championships for the south London-based club.

Glasner, who left last month when his contract expired, led Palace to their first major title in history by beating Manchester City and lifting the 2025 FA Cup, before doubling the club’s trophy haul in May by beating Spain’s Rayo Vallecano to win the Europa League title.

Reuters was unable to immediately verify the Financial Times report.
