Everton 'close to being sold' in £600million deal as Farhad Moshiri prepares to exit

Farhad Moshiri Everton EPL Goodison Park Toffees 777 Merseyside

Farhad Moshiri 's disastrous reign as Everton owner could be over in a matter of days, amid reports the Toffees are close to being sold.

American investment fund 777 Partners are set to complete a £600million takeover swoop - but only if Everton remain a Premier League club. Goodison Park chiefs hope to have the deal completed as soon as next week, although 777 would like to have survival guaranteed before signing off on it.

The Daily Mail report that a second bidder, MSP Sports Capital, remained in the chase on Wednesday night, despite them being clear second favourites. Other parties are interested but time is running out, with the unpopular Moshiri ready to hand over the keys to Goodison Park, and their new stadium, after seven calamity-filled years at the club.
