Premier League could BLOCK £500m Everton takeover amid doubts over whether 777 Partners can afford deal

Sponsored by

EVERTON owner Farhad Moshiri has agreed to sell the club to the controversial American company 777 Partners.

But tougher Premier League regulations could still block the £500million takeover, which is likely to take MONTHS to complete.

Moshiri yesterday announced a deal for the Miami-based investment group to acquire his 94.1 per cent controlling stake in the Toffees.

But Government officials have expressed concerns over whether 777’s managing partner Josh Wander would pass the Prem owners’ and directors’ test.
