NBA star expected to make offer to buy stake in Crystal Palace as part of consortium - with bid set to be more than £147m amid Eagles' European crisis

A consortium including NBA star Jimmy Butler 'is set to make an offer of more than £143million' to buy a stake in Crystal Palace.

Palace, who are waiting to find out if they will be booted out of next season's Europa League for contravening multi-club ownership rules, could sell 43 percent of the club owned by John Textor’s Eagle Football Holdings if they accept the offer.

That could then allow Palace to compete in the Europa League but it remains to be see if any agreement can be struck quickly enough.
