Everton investment news: MSP Sports Capital timeline emerges with documents singed
Everton owner Farhad Moshiri will not reportedly be looking to conclude the deal with MSP Sports Capital this week despite an agreement.
According to Liverpool Echo journalist Joe Thomas, while the documents have been signed to secure exclusivity, the focus this week will be on Premier League survival.
The Toffees may require a win against Bournemouth on the final day of the season to secure their status in the Premier League next term.
Via Twitter, Thomas wrote, “Latest on Everton and speculation around the club’s future. MSP Sports Capital the frontrunner in the battle for Farhad Moshiri’s ear, though immediate focus is on Premier League survival rather than concluding any deal this week, as suggested elsewhere.”
Not a full takeover unfortunately
