there will be a club do it at some point
Eventually if it doesn’t change the minus points
Will be less a punishment than loosing players for half there market price especially if you know you could still finish comfortably mid table
 

Farhad Moshiri has this evening notified all interested groups in purchasing Everton of his preference to sign an exclusivity deal with Dan Friedkin. Friedkin, CEO of The Friedkin Group, is also owner of Italian side AS Roma.

Dan Friedkin, 59, who's net worth Forbes estimates to be $6.2 billion (£4.9bn), has requested time to fully assess the deal and terms before signing an exclusivity agreement. If he does proceed, he is set to purchase current owner Farhad Moshiri’s 94 per cent stake in the club.

Friedkin was ranked as an outsider last week. Meanwhile, local businessman Andy Bell and George Downing's group, who are still open to being involved in any successful bid, were seen as an early front runner. With Moshiri moving goalposts, Vatche Manoukian and his consortium submitted a bid this week alongside MSP's initial offer.

The consortium led by London-based businessman Vatche Manoukian put in a £400m all-equity offer while Vici Private Finance, backed by two billionaires also stepped forward to table a bid. This is all whilst talks were had with A-CAP and John Textor, who owns a 45% stake in Crystal Palace.

After a chaotic search for a new owner, an exclusivity deal is yet to be signed, but according to Farhad Moshiri, it's getting closer.

The Bobble.
