John Textor is preparing for an eventful Saturday, entering the Women’s Champions League final between his OL and Barça (6 p.m.) then that of the Coupe de France, where his players will face PSG in Lille (9 p.m.). But this busy schedule does not prevent the OL boss from thinking about his business, as evidenced by his desire to review his portfolio of activities.
According to The Athletic, the American has decided to sell his shares to Crystal Palace (45%). Formerly a candidate for a majority buyout of the south-east London club’s shares, Textor would now like to leave the Eagles after having failed in this regard. Still according to the British media, the boss of the Eagle Football holding company contacted the investment bank Raine to find an investor likely to buy his shares.
The Athletic also suggests that the Lyon boss would like to move his activities further north of the Kingdom, more precisely towards Everton. An interest denied by those around him, judging “an excessive interpretation” by L’Equipe.
