Dan Friedkin has reignited his plan for the Everton takeover but there is no certainty as to whether or not he will make a bid, according to Bloomberg.

The news outlet reported on 16 September that he has held talks about the feasibility and structure of the deal as well.

The American billionaire's deliberations are ongoing while John Textor is also in the race to buy Farhad Moshiri's stake.

The club's financial stability hangs in the balance, with them having incurred significant losses and facing points deductions due to financial rule breaches.

Friedkin's involvement could provide immediate financial relief and strategic direction, crucial for Everton's future competitiveness.

The American billionaire's experience with Roma, leading them to European triumphs, suggests he could bring a similar vision and success to Everton, enhancing the club's standing both domestically and in Europe.

Moreover, a swift resolution could prevent the Blues from entering a prolonged period of uncertainty or potentially less favourable ownership.
