Premier: the Friedkins consider selling Everton, purchased two years ago

The Friedkin Group, owners of Roma and Everton, are considering selling the English club less than two years after the acquisition. This was reported by the BBC, according to which the American group led by Dan Friedkin is exploring new investment options, including the sale of a controlling stake. The Friedkin Group took over Everton in 2024 in a deal valued at over £400m (around €460m), taking over at a time of serious financial uncertainty.

"Having ensured stability, investment and the completion of the new stadium, the time is right to consider the next chapter of the club," the group said, specifying that it will only consider interlocutors deemed suitable to guide its future. The possible sale comes after months of tensions with some of the fans, fueled by choices on the transfer market and the management of the club. In September manager David Moyes said he had not met or spoken to Friedkin since his return to the helm in January 2025.
