More than £500,000 was paid by Everton FC in a goodwill gesture in relation to fees associated with their Bramley Moore stadium project, it has been revealed.
It was announced earlier this year that the Premier league club would hand over £502,000 of the £841,000 incurred by Liverpool Council because of the scheme.
A joint statement released on behalf of the council and the club at the time read: "In recognition of the council having incurred fees undertaking due diligence in respect of the potential funding, the club has agreed to meet those costs which were reasonably incurred and attributable to the funding project."
