Everton owners speak out on 'next chapter' as they explore full sale of club

  • The Friedkin Group has announced it is exploring new investment options for Everton Football Club , including the potential sale of its controlling interest, less than two years after acquiring the club.
  • The group secured Farhad Moshiri’s 94.1 per cent stake in December 2024, successfully overseeing the club’s transition from Goodison Park to the new Hill Dickinson Stadium ahead of the 2025-26 season.
  • In an official statement, the owners emphasised that they will only consider offers from prospective buyers who demonstrate the ability to be suitable stewards to build on the established momentum.
  • The announcement comes amid a strong start to the Premier League campaign under manager David Moyes, with Everton remaining unbeaten in their opening five matches to sit seventh in the top flight.
  • Everton are scheduled to face Hull City this weekend before navigating upcoming league fixtures against Chelsea and Arsenal, alongside a Carabao Cup tie against Newcastle.
