    Crystal Palace remain hopeful of a positive resolution to their discussions with UEFA over entry to the Europa League next season, but uncertainty is leaving decisions on hold. The main decisions are led by budget, knowledge of what size the squad will need to be, and whether certain players will still be keen to play for Palace if they are denied entry to European competition. But there are also calls to be made on players on the fringes of the first team.

    A consortium of sport and entertainment executives, which includes the NBA star Jimmy Butler, is expected to make an offer in excess of $200million to purchase Eagle Football's 43 per cent stake in Premier League soccer club Crystal Palace, sources briefed on the proposed deal have told The Athletic.

    Crystal Palace are in discussions with PSV goalkeeper Walter Benitez over a move to the Premier League. Benitez, 32, will be out of contract with PSV later this month and is yet to sign a new deal, meaning he is free to discuss a move with interested clubs. Palace have entered talks with the goalkeeper to bring him to south London. The FA Cup winners are looking for a third senior goalkeeper with Matt Turner's season-long loan from Nottingham Forest ending.

    This was supposed to be Crystal Palace's time. Maybe it still will be. Hopefully it still will be. But whatever happens in the days and months ahead, as UEFA deliberates and the Palace hierarchy wait with baited breath, all that exhilaration that accompanied winning the FA Cup - of lifting a first major trophy in the club's history and qualifying for European competition for the first time - has been sullied. Palace are in limbo.

Very sad to hear this. The SLP was a great place for me to learn so much. Without it I wouldn't be where I am today. Rich has been a brilliant mentor who has made an incredible contribution to covering south London sport. The SLP has launched & helped so many careers.

Really sad news. South London Press is no more. Want to thank everyone who has helped the paper on the sports side. Will look to put a few tweets out at some point but equally worried that I will miss out on people who have been incredibly supportive.
