Do you still think they will distance themselves from the campaign? After the chairman’s latest misstep. It’s a dam shame for all Bill’s followers

Haven't reports previously mentioned investment rather than takeover?

Takeover or minority investment?

Takeover suggests a controlling shareholding. I always felt that could be more likely because few people will want to invest without a degree of control, but that's not what has previously been reported.

It’s Italian media, so could be lost a little in translation IF there’s any substance to it. You’d expect more details to emerge from other sources throughout today if this has legs so it’ll be interesting to see how much of a stake they’ll be acquiring. The Athletic did say last week to be fair that this lot were pushing.
 
Interesting indeed where 'takeover' reference rather then investment is used. Upside would be it would almost certainly be curtains for the current board/leadership as the multi club model here would not be consistent with their retention.

They have an interesting portfolio of investment companies, lots of stadium / stand naming rights in there.
 
Found this in an article about 777, I’m wary of any new owners and their motivations but a lot of this sounds like what Everton are crying out for, a massive improvement and modernisation of revenue. With the stadium on the horizon you can see why they’d have an interest in us too- if they are looking for clubs that aren’t hitting their financial potential we’re definitely top of the list.

I think that’s their whole portfolio isn’t it?
Sides and markets with huge scope for being huge.

Genoa, Seville, Liege are all big markets on their own country.

Red Star FC have become the hipster club to support at the moment.

Vasco is a massive market area in Rio, they’re certainly marketable and popular across the Americas.

The BBL and London Lions represent a huge market if they can get it right.

Euro cup etc draw 15-16,000 gates… so you’d feel they seen a huge potential in Everton, so I guess there’s positives.

You’re right, and can add Berlin too. Under performing clubs in big markets. I’ve not gone deep on them but 777 seem to have a clear vision of what they’re doing and possibly are a more appealing option than MSP. I’m taking that Italian rumour with a pinch of salt but hopefully they’re at least at the table.
