Uefa informed the FAI of upcoming multi-club ownership deadline changes last October, raising confusion about the grounds for Drogheda United’s ultimately unsuccessful appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

Given Trivela holds the full 100% stake in Drogs and 80% shareholding in Silkeborg, Uefa decreed that the higher finisher in their league, the Danes, remain in this week’s Europa Conference League draw.
