Premier League gives condition for Everton 777 takeover Intensify

Prospective Everton owners 777 Partners have undoubtedly made fans cringe at

Goodison Park after revealing a new loan condition involving the Premier League.

The Daily Mail reported on February 2 that the American investment firm’s new loan to the club has been agreed upon

with the condition that the Premier League’s decision on the proposed takeover is imminent.

The UK news outlet reported in its print edition (2 February, page 69) that the

latest loan of £30 million has been granted on the condition that their

takeover be approved soon, though this cannot be guaranteed with the outcome still weeks away.

According to reports, 777 has agreed to lend Sean Dyche’s side money this

month, bringing their total loan amount at Goodison Park to £190 million [Daily

Mail, 1 February], but this appears to be different from previous investments made to the club.

The American investment firm is lending Everton the money to cover wages and fund their new Bramley-Moore Dock

stadium, but the loans raise further concerns about the club’s financial situation

How 777 Partners came to believe that the latest loan was agreed upon as a

condition of an imminent approved takeover is beyond comprehension,

given that their loans have nothing to do with the decision.

The American investment firm has taken an arrogant stance, and the only reason the process is taking so long is due to the

origin of their money. It appears that they are already trying to throw their weight around

Just because they are funding Everton, however generously, given that no

takeover has been approved, does not mean that the Premier League should rush or be forced to make a decision

That is not how the process works, and it is yet another controversial development

from 777 Partners, who are now instilling doubt in Everton fans rather than optimism.

Some Toffees fans will be alarmed by the American investment firm’s stance,

which suggests that they are unfamiliar with the Premier League.

Everton are already at odds with the league over the 10-point deduction,

which is now awaiting a decision on their appeal, and fans have already

made their voices heard following their protests during the 2-2 draw with Tottenham.

However, this latest takeover development provides the Premier

League with no additional ammunition to use against the club in their decision on the takeover and the FFP punishment.

Everton fans have been kept in the dark about this takeover for quite some time,

with very few updates since 777 received approval from the financial conduct authority back in 2023.

However, the way the firm has conducted business since the stake was

agreed with Farhad Moshiri and well before that has completely sucked the joy

out of fans who have been eagerly anticipating the departure of Everton’s majority shareholder.
