Christian Purslow delivers verdict on £1bn Everton valuation as Friedkins seek buyer

Former Premier League executive Christian Purslow and football writer Henry Winter analyzed Everton's ownership situation and whether The Friedkin Group can achieve a reported £1billion valuation. The discussions follow TFG's announcement that it has appointed Moelis & Company to explore investment options, including a potential sale of a controlling interest in the club.

While Everton has stabilized financially, moved into the new Hill Dickinson Stadium, and features David Moyes as manager, the final valuation remains subject to market interest. Other figures have estimated lower prices, with Keith Wyness suggesting £800million and Alan Myers citing a range between £800million and £1billion.
