“Breaking: The SHOCKING date the Friedkin Group’s Everton takeover will finally be completed
Everton’s future is looking increasingly promising.
The club’s new stadium at Bramley Docks is rapidly taking shape, and fans got their first glimpse of it lighting up the Merseyside sky earlier this week. The stadium may even host some of England’s World Cup qualifiers in 2025, with speculation suggesting it could welcome a match against Andorra in September.
In addition to this exciting development, Everton is set to be taken over by the Friedkin Group, marking the end of Farhad Moshiri’s turbulent eight-and-a-half-year tenure. This takeover is expected to bring a much-needed financial boost, potentially influencing future transfer windows and possibly signaling the end of Sean Dyche’s time as manager.
Although Everton fans have been calling for Dyche’s dismissal in recent weeks, those calls have quieted following two positive results against Wolves and Arsenal. Still, Sky Sports journalist Alan Myers, who is well-connected in Merseyside, has revealed the expected date for the Friedkin Group’s takeover. Myers predicts the deal will be finalized on Wednesday, December 18, meaning the new owners could be in the stands for Everton’s match against Chelsea next weekend. If this timeline holds, the week ahead is shaping up to be a busy one for everyone involved at the club. Change is finally on the horizon.
Ahead of the takeover, the Friedkin Group is already planning to appoint Dan Ashworth as sporting director to replace Kevin Thelwell, with these plans likely to move forward in the coming days.
As for Dyche, while it seemed inevitable that he would be let go after the takeover, it now appears that he may be given more time. His team’s recent 4-0 victory over Wolves and a draw against title-contenders Arsenal may buy him some time. However, with a challenging run of fixtures in the new year, Dyche’s future remains uncertain, and Everton News reports that he is likely to be dismissed in January, with Thelwell expected to depart as well.
