Everton appear to be coming towards the end of the long wait to finally have new owners, as another positive update has emerged from sources close to the Friedkin Group.

Farhad Moshiri has had many failed attempts at selling Everton but the Friedkin Group‘s bid to take over seems to be gathering pace and could be done in a matter of weeks.

The Friedkin Group have been given the green light in the FA and FCA tests, so it’s now down to the all-important Premier League test in the coming weeks.

With the January transfer window right around the corner, the mid-December timeline could be perfect to allow the new owners to get their feet under the table and put a plan in place.

There’s been a positive update from sources close to the Friedkin Group, which will give Everton fans even more hope of a deal being pushed through soon.

Sources close to the Friedkin Group issues Everton takeover update

It’s been stated by Alan Myers that a January transfer window plan may already be in place after the recent takeover boost, though there has been contrasting reports.

There is always the worry of PSR issues and with Everton only really wanting to avoid relegation, it may be a case of doing the bare minimum in January if things are in good shape.

Everything appears to still be on track for the Friedkin Group and Everton.

According to the Liverpool Echo, sources close to TFG have said that their client has maintained an eye on caution throughout this process, but everything is going fine at the moment with no cause for concern and an estimated completion date of mid-December remaining the target.

What’s Sean Dyche’s situation looking like?

Sean Dyche did well to recover from the abysmal start to the season in the Premier League, but performances have started to tail off again recently.

Decision-making and the style of play from his side have been the two main talking points, with many fans unhappy with the mentality he’s putting across after disappointing results.

It’s been claimed that the only reason Everton would sack Dyche is if things are absolutely dire. With relegation being the only target heading into a new stadium, expectations aren’t that high.

So, fans may have to wait until the summer of 2025 when the Bramley-Moore Dock stadium opens to see an exciting new face in charge.
