Everton owners considering club sale

The Friedkin Group (TFG) have said they will only entertain interest from parties who they feel are the "right stewards to take the club forward"; TFG completed their full takeover of Everton in December 2024

The Friedkin Group are considering the potential sale of Everton Football Club - saying "the time is right" for the next chapter.

The group, led by American billionaire Dan Friedkin , completed their full takeover of Everton in December 2024 - ending Farhad Moshiri's long spell at the helm.

The Friedkin Group (TFG) have said they will only entertain interest from parties who they feel are the "right stewards to take the club forward".

"When TFG became custodians of Everton, the club faced significant financial uncertainty and challenges both on and off the pitch," an Everton statement said on Friday.

"The immediate priority was to provide the stability, investment and support needed to secure the club's future, including helping to bring the long-promised stadium to completion for its deserving supporters.

"With that foundation now safely in place, the time is right to consider the next chapter for Everton. We will only entertain interest from parties who we strongly believe will be the right stewards to take the club forward and build on the momentum that has been established.

"Throughout this process, TFG's focus will remain unchanged. We will support the club in all ways necessary to achieve success on the pitch and will continue efforts to make a positive difference in the communities the club serves.

"TFG and the club will not be commenting further while this work is underway."
