Everton are the subject of takeover rumours once again.
A report in The Telegraph on Monday evening claimed that former Manchester United and Chelsea CEO Peter Kenyon was the frontman for a consortium that wished to acquire the Toffees from Farhad Moshiri, with chief executive of Minneapolis-based Talon Real Estate, Maciek Kaminski, and American businessman John Thornton among the group interested in purchasing the club.
The report goes on to state that Moshiri, whose Everton dream has turned into something of a nightmare over the past two years due to ongoing heavy losses and regression on the pitch, wants in excess of £500m for the Goodison Park outfit. The British-Iranian, who issued an apology to fans last week, has been known to be open to investment for some time, especially with a new stadium to fund, but giving up equity in the club has not been on the agenda, although the developments of 2022 could change that.
