Reports share when Moshiri expected to choose Everton takeover race winner

Everton owner Farhad Moshiri is expected to decide on a new preferred bidder in the takeover race within days, according to reports. The club has received multiple bids, including a new offer of £400million led by Vatche Manoukian, joining bids from MSP Sports Capital and Evertonian pair Andy Bell and George Downing, backed by US billionaire Michael Dell.Roma owner Dan Friedkin has also entered the race, holding talks with Moshiri, while John Textor, part-owner of Crystal Palace, has withdrawn his bid.

The quick decision is crucial for the club, following the failed bid by 777 Partners, which dragged on for 37 weeks.The new bids offer significant financial resources, and the Bell-Downing bid, in particular, has a strong understanding of the situation at Goodison Park, having been Everton creditors throughout the failed 777 bid.

Friedkin’s ownership of Roma also makes him a credible option.While the decision may come too late to impact the transfer window, which opens next week, a new owner could still have a significant impact on the club’s future.

The Premier League will conduct checks on the chosen bidder, but if they can prove the required funding, the takeover could be finalized before the start of next season.Everton fans will be watching closely as Moshiri makes his decision, hoping for a swift and sensible choice. The club’s future depends on it, and a new owner could bring the stability and investment needed to take the team forward.In other news, Everton’s transfer window priority is to sign an attacking ace available to join the club.

With the takeover saga finally nearing its end, the club can focus on building a strong team for next season.Overall, the next few days will be crucial for Everton’s future, and fans will be eagerly awaiting Moshiri’s decision on the new preferred bidder. With multiple credible options on the table, the club’s future looks promising, and a new era may be about to begin at Goodison Park.
