The inside track on the football stories that matter
, the 66-year-old – who served as CEO at Goodison Park between 2004 and 2009 and now runs a football consultancy advising elite clubs – insisted there is “no doubt” Friedkin will “fit through the hoops” set out by the Premier League, Football Association and Financial Conduct Authority.on Monday that an agreement over the terms of the sale of Farhad Moshiri’s 94% stake has been reached with The Friedkin Group.
The US investors had previously agreed a deal in principle in June before pulling out of the process due to concerns about money owed to 777 Partners.Friedkin’s Everton takeover should be approved by mid-November, says Wyness Wyness has backed the 59-year-old to be approved faster than Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who took control at Man United earlier this year.“It was big news on Monday after big breakthroughs with the 777 situation and how that debt was going to be handled.“He knew everything was there but he had a few points he had to satisfy himself on.“In terms of timing, there are three authorities which have to be involved in the process.“I’ve got no doubt Friedkin will fit through all of those hoops.
“The FA, as the custodian of the game in England, will have a say. There is also the Financial Conduct Authority, and that should be a straightforward tick in the box.“Ratcliffe was cleared at Man United in around 45 days. I think Friedkin will be quicker, I’m hopeful this could be done in mid-November.
“That would allow him to get in before the January transfer window, which is key. There’s a lot of relief around Merseyside at the moment.”
