Moving into a new stadium next year will be a landmark moment for Everton Football Club.
While the Blues continue to battle against relegation from the Premier League, the move from their home for the past 130 years, Goodison Park, to a new, state-of-the-art stadium on the banks of the River Mersey remains on track.
Everton owner Farhad Moshiri is understood to be closing in on securing the final tranche of funding for the project, which is well past the halfway point now.
