Crystal Palace have told Uefa that John Textor had no role in the hiring of manager Oliver Glasner, with the club attempting to downplay the American’s involvement as they bid to keep their place in next season’s Europa League.
The club have provided evidence aimed at proving that the American played no part in the process of hiring Glasner, reports the Times, with said evidence reportedly including “submitting communication between Dougie Freedman, then the sporting director, and [co-owner] Steve Parish”.
