Swiss-based businessman ready to buy new Everton stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock in deal with 777.
Everton fans Andy Bell and George Downing are prepared to strike an agreement with 777 Partners over a deal that would see the pair take over the Bramley-Moore Dock Stadium, according to Alan Nixon.
The journalist reported via his official Patreon [7 April] that Bell, and Swiss-based Downing, who has an interest in property, are owed millions by 777 Partners but could waive the sum in return for the stadium.
It is understood that a deal would also help the takeover bid, meeting one of the key requirements laid down by the Premier League, while Farhad Moshiri could also become one of the partners.
Everton to be saved by Merseyside duo at Bramley-Moore Dock
Everton fans will likely be jumping for joy at the idea of a duo from Liverpool, who have supported the club for years, to become owners of the new ground.
The monetary situation is a scary one for all Evertonians involved, especially with the risk of another points deduction incoming after a second breach of Profit and Sustainability rules.
Bell and Downing’s update would take some pressure off the takeover at Goodison Park before an exciting move to Bramley-Moore Dock.
Considering the incredible amount of pressure that the players are already under, facing the threat of relegation for the third successive season, this is very good news for all involved.
The main worry will always be the funding, with 777 Partners already investing millions into the project ahead of the 2024/25 season, and being able to waive the owed money could be key.
