World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported26m ago
Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis has lodged a libel and defamation lawsuit at London's High Court against Crystal Palace and "persons unknown." The legal action, initiated on Monday, stems from a provocative banner displayed by Crystal Palace fans that depicted Marinakis holding a gun to the head of Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White.
Marinakis, who acquired Nottingham Forest in 2017 and also owns the Greek club Olympiacos, is pursuing the claim through his legal team following the display of the threatening imagery by supporters of the Premier League rival club.
