Everton takeover: Peter Kenyon, real estate boss and billionaire behind bid to buy out Farhad Moshiri

Farhad Moshiri appears willing to listen to offers to end his tenure at Everton.

Having arrived in 2016 and invested north of £600m in the club, the success he had hoped for at the start of his reign has not materialised, and while his vision of delivering a new stadium at Bramley Moore Dock remains intact, the plans to break into the so-called 'big six' has been left in tatters.

Moshiri was willing to spend big in an attempt to try and close the gap between the Blues and the biggest Premier League clubs in the short term, with heavy investment into the playing side arriving. But so vast the difference in revenue streams, it was almost impossible to keep pace and that success never arrived. That led to heavy losses and the club skating close to the Premier League's profit and sustainability threshold, and the misery of the season just passed, where Everton scraped to safety having had their status in England's top tier under serious threat.
