AS Roma owner, Dan Friedkin, has reached an agreement to purchase Premier League club Everton, following the expiration of the deal with 777 Partners. Everton confirmed the move in a statement, acknowledging the financial support provided by 777 Partners and expressing gratitude for their contributions.

Everton has been under the ownership of former Arsenal shareholder Farhad Moshiri since 2016, with his stake increasing to 94.1 percent by January 2022. Despite significant investments in player transfers, totaling nearly £650 million, the club has faced struggles on the field, slipping out of the top half of the table to contend with relegation battles in recent seasons.

Friedkin's arrival brings hope for Everton fans, with many optimistic that the change in ownership could signal a new chapter for the club. Social media reactions have been mixed, with some highlighting the need for financial stability over lavish spending, while others believe that under Friedkin's leadership, Everton can aspire to greater success.

As the 2024 summer transfer window opens in England and Scotland, Everton supporters are eagerly anticipating further developments following this significant ownership change. With the club's future direction potentially shifting under Friedkin's stewardship, all eyes will be on Everton in the coming months as they seek to revitalize their fortunes in the Premier League.
