Everton face the prospect of having to repay a £150million loan should they be relegated from the Premier League.
On Friday evening the club made public its financial statements for the year ending June 2022. The accounts showed that the club recorded a turnover of £181m and a reported statutory loss of £44.7m, representing a £76m reduction on the loss of £121.3m for 2020/21.
However, the reduction arrived in a year when Everton made a £67.7m profit on player trading. Richarlison, Lucas Digne and James Rodriguez were among the sales during the year.
