American billionaire investors behind Crystal Palace are exploring a potential sale of the Premier League club, which secured a UEFA Conference League title this season, according to the Financial Times.

The club has appointed advisers from Raine Group to oversee the process, with several options currently under consideration, including a full sale and alternative routes to raise fresh capital.

The ownership structure includes Apollo co-founder Josh Harris, former Blackstone executive David Blitzer, and Woody Johnson, a member of the family behind healthcare giant Johnson & Johnson.

Harris and Blitzer jointly own a 30% stake in the club. Johnson, who owns NFL franchise the New York Jets and served as US ambassador to the UK during the first Trump administration, became the largest shareholder after acquiring a 43% stake last year in a deal that valued the club at £550 million.

A further 10% is held by British businessman Steve Parish, who has led Crystal Palace since 2010 and has been a lifelong supporter of the South London club.

A source familiar with the process told the Financial Times that the sale of a controlling stake of more than 50% could help secure a higher valuation for the current owners.

Crystal Palace is enjoying one of the most successful periods in its history. The club won the FA Cup in 2025 after defeating Manchester City in the final and lifted the UEFA Conference League trophy in May following a victory over Spain’s Rayo Vallecano.

The potential sale comes as the club pursues plans to redevelop its historic Selhurst Park stadium, increasing capacity to more than 34,000 seats.

Crystal Palace reported a pre-tax profit of £8.3 million on revenues of £196.6 million for the 2024–25 season. Deloitte ranked the club as the 25th richest in world football.
