Everton buyer Dan Friedkin’s net worth and Roma situation amid takeover news
Everton can aim for the stars under Dan Friedkin if his takeover goes through to end years of speculation at Goodison Park.
Farhad Moshiri has done plenty of wrong with the Toffees which has made relegation from the Premier League a genuine fear at the start of every campaign.
This season has been no different and it has looked somewhat likely under Sean Dyche after failing to secure a win in the opening five games of the campaign.
Now it appears that Friedkin could be set to take over after a historic deal was agreed with the current Everton owner [Fabrizio Romano, 23 September].
This could provide supporters at Goodison the chance to dream about a brighter future given the wealth that TFG will bring with them to Merseyside.
What is Dan Friedkin’s net worth?
The American businessman has a net worth of £5.81 billion [Forbes] and already has a football club in his portfolio after taking over Roma in August 2020.
Since his purchase of the Serie A giants, he has overseen a Conference League win and runners-up place in the Europa League.
It is clear that Friedkin knows what he is doing in bringing success to a football club and given the size of his wealth, that doesn’t come as a surprise.
His value sees him sit among the midtable of Premier League owners, sitting above the likes of Tottenham Hotspur, Wolves and Fulham in 10th spot [GIVEMESPORT, July 2024].
With the potential of money to spend if he comes in as owner, a change of managerial direction at Goodison could be utilised which has seen Jose Mourinho linked [Graeme Bailey].
The former Chelsea and Real Madrid boss has worked with Friedkin before which could mean a return to the Premier League with the Toffees could make sense.
There is plenty for supporters to look forward to moving forward under new ownership with reaching European football again a real possibility.
Fans only have to look at the likes of Aston Villa and Newcastle United to realise Champions League football is obtainable if things are done correctly at board level, which the American has previously done in Italy.
