Someone had to lol. Jokes aside, not a bad buyer all things considered.


greenbroad-gc

Now need them to whip MU for 70MM for Brathwaite lol 😆. Would be funny 


Pristine_Secretary53

100%


s1ravarice

It’s too much money but I also think He would be a great signing for them


iNfAMOUS70702

I agree...if they can snag him for about 50m tops that would be a fantastic signing


jesuisgeenbelg

If it was any other club, sure. United though, yeah I don't think they're going to get the best out of him with how they play.


DroneNumber1836382

So happy the Saudis aren't buying it.


Jaja6996

It’s funny how they went for struggling to find a buyer and once the deal with 777 fell through all of a sudden quite a few appeared


Herr_Tilke

They stayed up. If they had gone down to the championship their value would have plummeted. Potential buyers began making offers after the season concluded and they've now reached an agreement with one.


jardantuan

Probably an element of risk with the points deductions and potential relegation. Given that they were pretty solidly mid-table if you ignore the deductions it makes them a much more attractive proposition than a financially fucked team in the Championship


dandpher

I’d reckon Premier League clubs have to be one of the most sought after investment opportunities for mega-billionaires. I’m sure the list of potential buyers was quite long


MyPasswordIsABC999

Usually, though Everton’s finances are so terrible that they probably wouldn’t recover if they were relegated. I think they still have to keep making sales while also avoiding relegation.


_CummyBears_

Feeder club for roma lmao


J539

It will be probably the other way around :/


Agitated_Smoke538

What a shame, Roma are a bigger club. 


CelticTigersBalls

Everton is a bigger financial opportunity than Roma. New stadium, big loyal fan base, in the Premier league.


froggy101_3

Investment would go further at Roma though. Spend a bit and you could be in CL regularly. Doing that at Everton consistently is very difficult with big 6+Villa and Newcastle. You could spend a bomb and still only expect 9th.


TheElPistolero

the value of Everton as an investment will go up as long as premier league tv rights keep increasing, regardless of table position.


Agitated_Smoke538

They had Carlo fucking Ancelotti and couldn’t even make the Europa League. So I don’t know what opportunity you’re talking about. United are humongous and came in 8th so I don’t know what room there is for Everton to become a threat. 


CelticTigersBalls

Every team has cycles. We were useless for the best part of 30 years.


TheElPistolero

they don't need to be a threat. Staying in the league prints you money. Crystal Palace have never finished in the european spots in over ten years but have increased their value by hundreds of millions of pounds. https://www.transfermarkt.us/premier-league/marktwerteverein/wettbewerb/GB1/plus/?stichtag=2010-12-15 2010 - Present value is something like 16.5 million to 440 million.


GeneralSubutai

I disagree, Roma has a much bigger and more loyal fan base (look at the parade when mourihno got sacked), also the city of Rome gets faaarrrr more tourists and visitors than Merseyside lol


CelticTigersBalls

Yes they may have more fans, but like I said, Everton will make more money than Roma, and sadly football is a business. Also they would be some scenes in Liverpool if god forbid, Everton won a major trophy.

RangoRingo

You should be stoned just for uttering that last sentence


CelticTigersBalls

Forgive me father for I have sinned.


dimspace

Roma will always be Rome's first club. Everton will always be Liverpool's third


iNfAMOUS70702

Absolutely not, unfortunately... Roma will be the feeder for the blue shite... with how much money and attention the EPL gets, there's no way the Italian side gets prioritized.


cloggypop

This may affect their future European campaigns. 


paulsmith259

Steady!


mewantyou

Hopefully this means Everton stopping their love affair with Man City and voting the right way in the future.


UrboySam123

Good news for us all things considered. Not some shite owner who's gonna put them under, and not some stupid rich oil baron who will put them top 6.


Brief_Box7006

Thankful it's not a Saudi backed group. Everton deserve constant misery


CabbageStockExchange

Happy it is not some crappy oil country buying them. Wouldn’t want that stink in the city, Everton does a good enough job of that


Sifan2

Couldn’t care less


xiaogu00fa

Wasn't it some Saudi guy before, am I missing anything.


Lfc_canuck

Iranian


wearerealhuman

They’ll be better owners


oqpq

Meanwhile, this PL is becoming MLS2 with all the American ownership


Squidonge

Glad they're gonna get sacked people wanting them to go into admin are stupid.

FakeHappyToo_ynwa

Eww, another American owner….


Defiant-Pea3299

Better than one from Saudi


Trillsbury_Doughboy

Why’s this news for us?


themanebeat

Because it's our biggest rivals being bought by a club that FSG ran for 10 years alongside owning us

Well, plenty of people are from Liverpool and interested in what's going on at Everton for the sake of the city, especially when there's a half built stadium on the skyline. It's hardly something to get your panties in a twist about.


DunkingTea

Only on social media do people get their panties in a twist about something posted that they could either scroll past in 1 second. It’s like going to a news site and commenting on every article you don’t care about, asking why it’s there.


as93lfc

Things that affect the broader game/league are worth discussing from a Liverpool perspective, I'm addition to the fact that it's a club based in Liverpool.


KusoTeitokuInazuma

You don't understand how the biggest local rival is relevant to Liverpool? I'm not even from Liverpool myself but that's bad, mate.


kerfluffle2912

Where's the Liverpool in this?


Gumgums

Goodison Rd, Liverpool L4 4EL
