Farhad Moshiri is reportedly in advanced talks with a US-based investor to sell Everton Football Club in a deal worth £400m.
Moshiri, who has owned a significant stake in the club since February 2016 and raised his outright holding of shares to 94 per cent earlier this year, has been enticed by a bid from Maciek Kaminski.
According to the Financial Times, talks in the past few days have progressed well between the two parties with a deal appearing likely. The usual caveat of the Premier League needing to approve the deal withstanding.

Everton owner has resurrected talks with American property investor Maciek Kaminski, who tried to buy the club in the summer.
But the fresh negotiations are understood to centre around Moshiri’s desire to secure funding for the new £500m stadium, which is currently under construction at Bramley Moore Dock on the Liverpool waterfront.
Kaminski is a little known Minnesota-based developer and investor who has investment links in eastern Europe, and briefly formed an unlikely partnership with John Thornton - an elite name in US business circles - in an attempt to buy the Merseyside club.
But now the Polish-born property developer is back with proposals to help find funding for the new stadium, with the suggestion he could take a minority stake in the club should he prove successful.
Sources within the club indicate talks are at an exploratory stage, with no agreement imminent, and there is caution about the prospect of any negotiations being successful.
