John Textor is considering giving Everton fans the chance to buy shares in the club if he succeeds in his £600m
bid to take control from Farhad Moshiri.
The American businessman is preparing to float on the New York Stock Exchange his holding company Eagle Football Group, which owns Lyon, Botafogo in Brazil and the Belgian club RWD Molenbeek and has a 45% stake in Crystal Palace, and sources close to Textor have told the Guardian that
Everton could be taken public at a later date.
