Everton takeover 'aim' emerges as talks rumoured to have progressed

A consortium looking to take over Everton is looking to have an agreement by the time the squad arrive in the USA for their pre-season tour, latest reports have suggested.

The Telegraph wrote on Wednesday morning that the group, spearheaded by former Manchester United and Chelsea chief Peter Kenyon and bankrolled by Maciek Kaminski, could be looking to introduce themselves to Frank Lampard when the Blues arrive in Minnesota next month. The report claims that those involved in the consortium have met Farhad Moshiri in person, while also having visits to Finch Farm and the new stadium project at Bramley-Moore Dock.

It's claimed that a price in excess of £500m has already been agreed for the sale of the club, with no mention of the current owner retaining a stake as things stand. The report suggests that Kenyon would take up a role with the Blues if the proposed takeover goes ahead.
