The consortium led by Peter Kenyon who is currently in talks with the Everton board is approaching to take over the club. The group, which has signed contract bosses and has also secured a period of exclusivity, is aiming for Toffees ’preseason tour in the United States as the date on which they will be able to settle the sale.
Real estate mogul Maciek Kaminski (said to prefer the nickname “MG”) is headquartered in Minneapolis and, with the Blues scheduled to face Minnesota United on July 21, would like to introduce himself personally to coach Frank Lampard and the team of players.
The Telegraph, which has been “up to date” throughout the acquisition conversation, reported earlier today that there has been more progress in the talks.
“These discussions are ongoing and Talins Real Estate CEO Kaminski has traveled to England to meet with current majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri in person and visited the site at Bramley-Moore Dock, where the new Everton’s £ 500 million stadium, which Kaminski has pledged to fund.
“A general price, in excess of £ 500 million, has already been agreed in principle for the sale of Everton to the consortium, which is made up of the Kaminski family, Kenyon and American businessman John Thornton, and covers the debt of the club.
“The group has also promised that funds will be available, within the financial fair play guidelines, for Lampard to spend on them and is willing to push for the acquisition in time to run smoothly in the second half of the transfer period. summer “.
Everton are in a position where they have to sell key assets to buy players to bolster Lampard’s team, with Richarlison getting closer to an exit, probably at Tottenham.
It has been rumored that the Blues will have to move the Brazilian international at the end of the month (Thursday, June 30), as this also marks the end of the year. The importance of the date is that Everton can claim the proceeds from this sale as part of its 2021-22 accounting and therefore make a profit for the first time in three years, which would greatly help alleviate the Premier’s stressful nude. League Benefits and Sustainability Regulations around the club coffers.
While current majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri has never skimped on spending money, it is how the money has been spent that has been most annoying to fans. The team he created at both the managerial and board level of the club has undoubtedly done a lot to increase the club’s visibility and provide sponsorship, but the wrong expense has nullified the benefits derived from that.

For the new owners to promise football manager Kevin Thelwell funds for this summer’s transfer period, they will need to have a series of sponsorships already lined up to be able to show on the balance sheet that the club’s revenue has increased, which will then allow Toffees to spend proportionally.
It is also very interesting to see how the consortium is keeping all its dealings with the club very public, in this case using The Telegraph as a means of communication with the fans. This has been a hallmark of Kenyon, as the mainstream media knew very well what was going on when he orchestrated the takeover bids for Newcastle United and Chelsea.
It looks like more will come about it.
