Richard Keys has claimed that Everton owner Farhad Moshiri is “desperate” to sell the club as the billionaire prepares to discuss offers with four potential bidders.
The Mirror exclusively revealed on Monday that Moshiri and his backer Alisher Usmanov are considering cutting their losses at Goodison Park, after receiving approaches to sell their stake from four different parties.
And Keys, the former Sky Sports presenter now host of beIN Sports’ Premier League coverage, is adamant that the British-Iranian supremo is eager to cash in on his stake in the club. But he believes that a significant commitment to building the club’s new stadium, as well as a £500m offer to take control of the club, will be required to prise the Toffees away from his hands.
