Everton boardroom turmoil will only delay any investment – Finance Expert
We’re delighted to welcome football finance expert Dr Daniel Plumley as our exclusive columnist. Each week he’ll be giving his views on the biggest talking points at Everton
Dan Plumley has insisted that the turmoil in the Everton boardroom will only delay any confirmation of the incoming investment from MSP Sports Capital.
The Esk has reported that the triple exit of Denise Barrett-Baxendale, Grant Ingles and Graeme Sharpe cost the club up to £7million in the end.
The finance guru has insisted that many egos are still at play as negotiations continue, with all these developments naturally slowing things down at Everton.
“Again, we go back to the overall picture at Everton and the things that are naturally slowing the takeover down,” he exclusively told Goodison News.
“This is another factor because you have an internal boardroom shake-up as well, being dictated by the current owner and lots of egos at play with power plays and negotiations.
“Those things take time, so it is just another thing in the background that is contributing to the delay with the situation at Everton.”
Farhad Moshiri paying off members of the boardroom was supposed to speed up matters elsewhere with seats now available, but it appears to have just added to the mess.
Nothing ever runs smoothly at Everton, but it would be nice for once to see some positive news emerge in the coming days or at least before the new Premier League season.
