Concerns Regarding Farhad Moshiri’s Financial Support Emerge Amidst Failed Everton Takeover

Joe Thomas says it is currently unclear how much of a financial commitment Everton can or will be willing to make to Farhad Moshira following the collapse of the Friedkin Group takeover.

   The Liverpool ECHO reporter said the longer the takeover saga drags on, the more serious the problems will be for the Toffees.

   Thomas also pointed out that after spending as much money as he has to run the Merseyside outfit, he may not want to put more money into him, especially if he tries to find a buyer.

   Writing in the Echo (July 21), Thomas commented: “But the specter of instability is now on the horizon. Everton relied on money from 777 Partners to see them through to the end of last season.

   “It is not clear to what extent Moshiri can or wants to pump more money into a club he has already invested hundreds of millions of pounds in. The longer the takeover situation goes without resolution, the more serious the matter will become.”

   Everton’s takeover drama won’t slow down transfer deals

   Although the takeover drama was the main story on the minds of Everton fans and club staff, it did not slow down their transfer business.

   Everton’s attack is a major area of the team, which has been boosted so far by the addition of Iliman Ndiaye, the Toffees’ main signing of the window.

   Jack Harrison was also welcomed back to the club on a temporary basis after a very successful first season on loan from Leeds United.

   Both moves were made at a time when it was clear that the Friedkin Group would take over the club.

   The takeover did not materialize and understandably raised questions from fans about further arrivals.

   Fans may be a bit calmer as Alan Myers reported on July 17 that The Toffees are looking for more than two new additions this summer.

   Everton’s future is unclear at the moment, but it looks like the squad will be suitably strengthened before the end of the term.
