Crystal Palace appeal Europa League banishment to Court of Arbitration for Sport, as 'expected date of verdict is revealed'
The Eagles had looked to be participating in the second tier of European competition after beating Manchester City in the FA Cup final in May to win their first-ever major trophy.
Their bid to overturn the decision comes two weeks after they were barred from competing in the Europa League due to rules on multi-club ownership, with American businessman John Textor also being the majority owner of Lyon.

Lammy and Healey to sign bilateral Aukus deal during trip to Australia
The UK will sign a new 50-year bilateral Aukus treaty with Australia as the Foreign and Defence Secretaries visit the country on Friday. David Lammy and John Healey will meet their counterparts at the annual Australia-UK ministerial meeting, or Aukmin, in Sydney, and then travel on to Melbourne to meet businesses involved in the Aukus submarine programme. They will also visit Darwin as the Carrier Strike Group docks in the Northern Territory. The Aukus partnership between the UK, US and Australia involves building nuclear-powered attack submarines – including Australia acquiring its first such fleet – and co-operating in other areas of defence. It was agreed by the three countries in 2021, but the Trump administration has put it under review, raising fears it could pull out. The deal now being signed by the UK and Australia sets out the bilateral aspects of the partnership and how the two countries will work together to deliver their Aukus submarine programmes over the next half century. Defence Secretary Mr Healey said: 'Aukus is one of Britain's most important defence partnerships, strengthening global security while driving growth at home. 'This historic treaty confirms our Aukus commitment for the next half century.' He said people 'not yet born' will benefit from jobs secured through the deal. More than 21,000 people in the UK are expected to be working on the programme at its peak. Foreign Secretary Mr Lammy said the UK-Australia relationship is 'like no other'. He added: 'In our increasingly volatile and dangerous world, our anchoring friendship has real impact in the protection of global peace and prosperity. 'Our new bilateral Aukus treaty is an embodiment of that – safeguarding a free and open Indo-Pacific whilst catalysing growth for both our countries.' The UK's Carrier Strike Group – an international formation of Royal Navy warships, submarines and aircraft – has been taking part in the Talisman Sabre military exercise hosted in Australia. The Australia and US-led military exercise involves more than 35,000 military personnel from 19 countries. Shadow defence secretary James Cartlidge said: 'Aukus was a landmark achievement of the last Conservative government and it's essential that Labour keeps up the momentum, including on industrial collaboration. 'We welcome further progress but this must deliver in practice, both in terms of jobs and strengthened mutual security, at a time of heightened threats.'

Dundee United have 'disappointment' after Conference League win as horror stories prey on minds

Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin admits he'd be happier with a more comprehensive advantage after Zac Sapsford's goal handed his side a narrow first leg lead against UNA Strassen. The teams meet again next week in Luxembourg and though United will be favourites to progress to the third qualifying round of the Conference League, they struggled at times against their part-time opponents while past Scottish horror stories will prey on their mind. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Aberdeen lost 1-0 against Fola Esch in Luxembourg nine years ago but having already won the first leg 3-1, progressed to the next round. Rangers, meanwhile, suffered one of Scottish football's biggest-ever shocks when they lost 2-0 against Progres Niederkorn in 2017 having, like United, only managed to gain a 1-0 advantage at home in the first leg. Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin issues instructions from the sidelines against UNA Strassen. | SNS Group Goodwin knows the job is far from done on a night when he made Dundee United history by picking a team devoid of Scots. Craig Sibbald and Owen Stirton did come on as second-half substitutes but United, who were already leading with a goal just after half time from Zac Sapsford, could not make things more comfortable for themselves. He lamented 'sloppy' play and while he accepted it was still very early for such a much-changed side, he stressed there was still 'a hell of a lot we need to do better' next week in Luxembourg and beyond. 'We're pleased with the clean sheet and we scored a really good goal with a bit of quality to turn and it was a wonderful strike (from Sapsford),' said Goodwin. 'I think there are certain elements we need to do better in. We turned over possession far too cheaply which led to counters but defensively we were very good. There were certainly moments in the game where we need to improve. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Still game on in Luxembourg 'I thought when we did move the ball quickly and found pockets we looked a threat but we've left at least a couple of goals out there. (Vicko) Sevelj had a great chance but credit to the 'keeper who made a good save. (Owen) Stirton also had a chance and he made a good save onto the post. We'd rather be sitting here with a 3-0 advantage but at 1-0 it's still very much game on. 'The disappointment is more the fact we didn't do ourselves justice in the second half. Our possession on the ball, we didn't move it quickly enough. We were too sloppy and we'll try to improve those things. It's still very early days for this group of players but there's a lot to work on going into next week.

Luke Shaw ready to quit Man Utd with injury-hit star offered mega-money swansong in Saudi Arabia
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LUKE SHAW faces a Manchester United exit and the injury-hit star could be gone by January. England left-back Shaw, 30, is aware of serious interest from Saudi clubs and is ready to listen to offers. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Luke Shaw could be on his way out of Old Trafford Credit: Rex He still has two years left on his Old Trafford contract but fears his Red Devils career might be nearing an end. Shaw made just 12 appearances last season after missing the first three months with a prolonged calf problem and is facing limited opportunities. He did start May's 1-0 Europa League final defeat to Tottenham but in a back-three due to a shortage of centre-backs. Shaw is likely to be behind Patrick Dorgu in the left-back pecking order and Ruben Amorim also has high hopes for new boy Diego Leon who has signed for £3.3m from Paraguayan club Cerro Porteno. The physically imposing 18 year old played the first half of last weekend's 0-0 friendly draw with Leeds in Sweden and the Amorim said: 'He did really well. 'He's learning things, he's powerful, he's going to be a very good player.' Meanwhile, Diogo Dalot has been a regular starter a left wing back in the United chief's favoured 3-4-2-1 system. Shaw is in the United squad that begin their pre-season tour of the USA with a clash against West Ham on Sunday - and also featured against Leeds - but knows he is liable to be making up the numbers once the Prem kicks off next month. 4 4 Youngster Diego Leon is tipped for a big future at United Credit: Getty BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS His United career began in heartbreak with a double leg break due against PSV in only his eighth game back in September 2015. Shaw later revealed that surgeons considered amputation due to blood clots discovered in the after-math of the injury. Man Utd hunting Jackson as Chelsea's demands revealed | Transfers Exposed That cost him eleven months on the sidelines and began a nightmare run of problems that has seen him miss almost FIVE YEARS of his United and England career. Shaw is seen as a popular and influential figure within the dressing room and Amorim is in no hurry to dump him or his £150,000 a week wages. But the player himself is determined to make up for so much lost time and knows he faces a tough decision on his future over the coming months. Should he decide to leave it is unlikely United would be difficult to deal with in terms of a fee considering all those injuries and his lack of appearances - only 27 in the last two campaigns. Amorim, meanwhile, is not prepared to break the bank for a new No 9. Fans hoped Alexander Isak's decision to tell Newcastle he wants out of St James' Park might encourage United to bid. But with United's spending on Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo topping £130m this summer, the club are not in a position to go large unless there are significant exits. SunSport revealed Chelsea's Senegal star Nicolas Jackson was eyeing Old Trafford as a potential destination, but the Blues want £80m for him. But United are in no position to push the boat out - opening the door for under-pressure Rasmus Hojlund to stake his claim during the three-match Premier League Summer Series tournament against West Ham, Bournemouth and Everton. On Thursday night Aston Villa moved to dismiss reports United had proposed an audacious swap deal, offering rebel Alejandro Garnacho in return for England striker Ollie Watkins. 4 TRANSFER NEWS LIVE - KEEP UP WITH ALL THE LATEST FROM A BUSY SUMMER WINDOW
