Friedkin place focus on Roma amid Everton sale
Story updated
The story in brief
32-second readThe Friedkin family has put Everton, acquired in 2024 through its holding company, up for sale. According to Il Messaggero, this decision is linked both to economic reasons and to the potential difficulties arising from the ownership of two clubs, Roma and Everton, potentially competing in the same European competitions.
Neither a deadline for completing the sale nor an official valuation have been set. However, speculation suggests a figure close to £800 million, including the English club’s approximately £380 million in debt.
The potential transaction could prove advantageous for the holding company, which acquired 94.1% of Everton from Farhad Moshiri for approximately €400 million. Under Friedkin’s management, the English club completed the new stadium and improved its financial situation.
