How TFG and Everton responded after being approached for comment about seeking new investors

The Friedkin Group are in the market for new investors at Everton.

There has been plenty of frustration levelled towards the Toffees owners throughout the summer.

That has only been amplified after what was a disastrous deadline day.

The failure to sign a striker was bad enough while also letting go of Beto and Iliman Ndiaye.

Anger has been aimed at the Friedkins for their part to play in that matter as a result.

They are now looking for fresh investment in Everton as the search begins on Merseyside.

What are the Friedkins doing to sell Everton shares?

It can't come as a surprise that the US group are looking to make a change at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Just two years after coming in as the new owners, they could be decreasing their hold on the Blues.

That comes after the Financial Times reported on Thursday that the Friedkins are working with advisors on the sale of stakes in the Merseyside outfit.

The process is said to be in an early stage, but could still result in new investors buying a significant share of the Toffees.

There is every chance that a deal doesn't go through at this stage.

The FT suggest that they reached out to the Friedkin Group and Everton, but both declined to comment.

What has gone wrong for the Friedkins at Everton?

This development is likely to go down well with supporters after the transfer problems in L3.

There was so much hope surrounding the Blues when the American group paid £330million to take control at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

That has been dashed, thanks in part to their ties with Roma.

The Friedkins also own the Italian outfit and have often been accused of favouring the Serie A outfit.

That has truly been their downfall and it looks as if the Friedkins can't keep up with both.

It will be interesting to see what happens from here and whether fresh investors will actually come in at Everton.
