European champion may put one out (7)

I believe the answer is:

evictor

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'put one out' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'european champion' is the wordplay.
'european' becomes 'e' (abbreviation e.g. EU).
'champion' becomes 'victor' (I've seen this before).
'e'+'victor'='EVICTOR'

'may' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for evictor that I've seen before include "Someone turning out" , "One turning out" , "Bailiff" , "one dispossesses by law" , "He'll turn out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
