This week, the American consortium leading the way to buy Everton have held meetings with Farhad Moshiri in Monaco, and Bill Kenwright in London. Along with these talks, they have also toured the club’s training ground and the site of the new stadium on Bramley-Moore Dock. It is understood that Everton have multiple buyers in the pipeline, but due to Kenyon’s consortium signing an exclusivity agreement for talks, they are believed to be the front runners. Neither Everton nor Kenyon’s consortium have commented on any takeover, but Telegraph Sport reports that a bid in excess of £500M has been put forward, along with money to fund the building of the new stadium and new signings thought to be around £500M. (£1BN in total) This would be a huge help for Kevin Thelwell and Frank Lampard, who due to financial constraints will have to sell some key players, to buy anyone. However, if Kenyon’s consortium was to take over, this does not mean that financial fair play (FFP) is wiped out, as due to poor recruitment over the last 3 years and losses during COVID, it will take a few windows before Everton can spend freely again. With the exclusivity agreement thought to be coming to an end soon, it will be interesting to see if any others do come forward with a potential bid, which for Farhad Moshiri if a potential bidding war was to start, this could be the best outcome for him and a source has told Telegraph Sport “An auction would obviously be to Everton’s advantage, but Kenyon’s consortium got exclusivity and it is still theirs to lose. The feeling is they are much further down the line than any other group at this stage.” Source

Peter Kenyon-led group commit more than £1bn spend to Everton takeover
Leading candidates willing to fund new stadium and significant transfer business after exclusivity terms were secured. The Peter Kenyon-led group in talks to buy Everton have made a commitment to put up the money to build the club’s new stadium and provide significant transfer funds if their takeover bid is successful.
As revealed by Telegraph Sport, former Manchester United and Chelsea chief executive Kenyon is fronting a group, including chief executive of Minneapolis-based Talon Real Estate Maciek Kaminski and American businessman John Thornton, who are in talks to buy Everton.
It is understood that other groups have also made informal approaches for Everton, with at least one indicating they would be willing to make a firm bid, but Kenyon’s consortium secured exclusivity for talks and are still believed to be the best-positioned group after heads of terms were signed.
Kenyon’s group and Everton have not commented on the talks or any of the details of the bid, but Telegraph Sport understands a price in excess of £500 million has been touted between the two parties.
Furthermore, it is believed that Kenyon has made it clear that his group would fund the building of Everton’s new stadium at Bramley Moore Dock, thought to cost in the region of £500m, and put forward immediate funds for new signings.
That would be a boost to head coach Frank Lampard, who Kenyon’s group would look to support, with Everton’s transfer budget currently limited and the club having to look at smart signings such as the free transfer arrival of James Tarkowski.
A source told Telegraph Sport: “An auction would obviously be to Everton’s advantage, but Kenyon’s consortium got exclusivity and it is still theirs to lose. The feeling is they are much further down the line than any other group at this stage.”
Regardless of whether or not the Kenyon-led takeover goes through, however, Everton are determined not to be pressured into selling Richarlison for less than they believe the Brazilian is worth.
Tottenham Hotspur have indicated a desire to sign Richarlison, but have not yet got anywhere near matching Everton’s valuation that stands over £50m, while the Toffees are waiting to see whether or not Chelsea follow up their interest with a bid.
Everton have held talks over a loan move for Tottenham midfielder Harry Winks, while Spurs are also thought to be prepared to allow Lucas Moura to move in the opposite direction if they can sign Richarlison.
