Story summary

Everton's US-based owners, The Friedkin Group (TFG), are considering selling a controlling stake in the club to attract new investment. This comes less than two years after TFG acquired Everton from Farhad Moshiri in December 2024, taking over a team struggling with financial issues and instability. Since then, TFG has managed Everton's move into their new stadium, the Hill Dickinson Stadium, and worked to improve the club’s financial standing. The owners stated that when they took control of Everton, the club faced significant financial uncertainty and challenges both on and off the pitch. Their immediate goal had been to provide stability and support needed for the club's future success.
