Everton strike deal with Man City to sign Jack Grealish
Everton have agreed a deal with Manchester City to take Jack Grealish on loan for the season. The £100m man is set to become David Moyes ' sixth summer signing as he leaves the Etihad Stadium in search of first-team football. Grealish was omitted from City's squad for the Club World Cup as Pep Guardiola signalled that he had no place in his plans, prompting interest from the Toffees and other clubs this summer. City's club-record signing, a regular in their treble-winning season of 2022-23, has only started one league game in 2025 and just 17 in the last two seasons. But Moyes has turned to Grealish in his attempt to add more creative players to his Everton squad. Grealish is desperate to play more if he is to get into the England squad for next summer's World Cup. While there is also the added attraction of Everton entering a new era in the Hill Dickinson Stadium, and the Friedkin ownership's willingness to spend after the recent takeover. The former Aston Villa star was seen with Man City supporters earlier this summer at an Oasis concert in Heaton Park, Manchester, pledging his affection to the fanbase. 'I love City more than anything,' Grealish said. 'And do you know what I love more than anything? City fans! They're the best fans in the world!' Moyes has already signed striker Thierno Barry, goalkeeper Mark Travers, left-back Adam Aznou and attacking midfielders Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Charly Alcaraz this summer, but Everton are also looking for a right winger.

Crystal Palace lose appeal against their demotion from Europa League
Crystal Palace have lost their appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport against their demotion from the Europa League and will play in the Conference League this season. The FA Cup winners were demoted to the Conference League by European football's governing body UEFA on July 11 after it determined that as of March 1, American businessman John Textor had control or influence at both Palace and French club Lyon. Nottingham Forest – who travel to Selhurst Park for Palace's first home league game on August 24th – have taken the Europa League place. A CAS media release read: 'The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has dismissed an appeal by Crystal Palace FC (CPFC) against UEFA, Nottingham Forest FC and Olympique Lyonnais (OL) concerning a decision by UEFA to remove CPFC from the UEFA Europa League 2025/2026 due to a breach of UEFA multi club ownership regulations. 'As a result, CPFC will be admitted to compete in the UEFA Conference League 2025/2026. 'The appeal sought to annul the decision by the UEFA Club Financial Control Body on 11 July 2025 which found CPFC and OL non-compliant with multi club ownership regulations. 'Alongside the annulment of the decision, CPFC requested readmission to the UEFA Europa League with Nottingham Forest or OL's admission rejected. 'After considering the evidence, the Panel found that John Textor, founder of Eagle Football Holdings, had shares in CPFC and OL and was a Board member with decisive influence over both clubs at the time of UEFA's assessment date. 'The Panel also dismissed the argument by CPFC that they received unfair treatment in comparison to Nottingham Forest and OL. The Panel considered that the UEFA Regulations are clear and do not provide flexibility to clubs that are non-compliant on the assessment date, as CPFC claimed. 'This was an expedited procedure, with an operative decision rendered two and a half weeks after the appeal, filed on 21 July 2025. Unless Parties request confidentiality, a full Award (with grounds) will be made available on the CAS website in due course.' Textor has now sold his stake in Palace, with the purchase of his shares by New York Jets owner Woody Johnson completed in late July. Palace chairman and co-owner Steve Parish, speaking after the Eagles beat Liverpool to lift the Community Shield, said his team would look for any alternative solutions should the verdict not go their way. He said: 'If we don't get the right outcome, then we will have to look if there's any steps after that.'

Crystal Palace to play in Conference League as appeal against Uefa demotion fails
Crystal Palace have lost their appeal against UEFA's decision to drop them from the Europa League tournament to the third-tier Conference League in a multi-club ownership case, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) said on Monday. Palace had qualified for the Europa League through their stunning FA Cup victory over Man City, a historic first major trophy in the club's history and one they followed up on with yesterday by winning the Community Shield. However, Uefa ordered the Eagles to play in the third-tier European competition in July following a breach of its multi-club ownership rules. The club crucially missed a March 1 deadline to demonstrate that American co-owner John Textor, also a part-owner at Lyon, had no control or influence over more than one club in the same competition. This decision has been upheld by CAS after an appeal was lodged by Palace last month. 'After considering the evidence, the Panel found that John Textor, founder of Eagle Football Holdings, had shares in Crystal Palace and Lyon and was a board member with decisive influence over both clubs at the time of Uefa's assessment date,' a statement from CAS read. 'The Panel also dismissed the argument by Crystal Palace that they received unfair treatment in comparison to Nottingham Forest and Lyon. The Panel considered that the Uefa Regulations are clear and do not provide flexibility to clubs that are non-compliant on the assessment date, as Crystal Palace claimed.' Uefa's Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) decided Textor's interest in both clubs meant only one could enter the Europa League, with Lyon 's higher league position of sixth edging out Palace, who finished the Premier League campaign in 12th. Nottingham Forest are expected to benefit from the Eagles' demotion, replacing them in the Europa League following their seventh-place league finish. Textor went on to sell his 42.9 per cent stake at Selhurst Park in a bid to save Palace's Europa League status, with controversial New York Jets owner Woody Johnson completing the acquisition of the American's shareholding last month in a deal believed to be worth close to £200m. The move came too late to satisfy Uefa, however, with Palace forced to take their fight to CAS as their fans protested vehemently. After hundreds of supporters made their feelings clear in an initial protest outside Selhurst Park, The Indepedent revealed that members of Palace ultras Holmesdale Fanatics - who organised the first march - travelled to Uefa's HQ in Nyon, Switzerland to combat the perceived injustice head-on. They delivered a suitcase of fake money, which represented 'the contradictions between their supposed 'fundamental values' of integrity and fairness, and the reality of their business methods and general conduct', as described in a statement from the fan group. Following the protest in Nyon, they travelled to the Lausanne headquarters of CAS to reiterate their desire to have the ruling overturned, just a couple of hours before CAS confirmed Palace had lodged an appeal against Uefa's verdict. A closed-door hearing in Lausanne took place on August 8, just two days before Palace's victorious return trip to Wembley on Sunday, with a verdict penned in for today.
