Dan Friedkin not going to Everton games is ‘irrelevant’ but ‘selling your biggest assets is a worry’

Former Premier League player Danny Mills expressed concern over Everton selling major assets at the end of the transfer window, though he called owner Dan Friedkin's lack of match attendance irrelevant. The Friedkin Group sanctioned the sale of Iliman Ndiaye to Manchester City, alongside departures for Beto, Tim Iroegbunam, and Nathan Patterson, bringing in over £100m on deadline day.

Everton signed Ainsley Maitland-Niles from Lyon for £4m and brought Jack Grealish back on loan from Manchester City after a £40m move for Monaco's Folarin Balogun collapsed. Manager David Moyes revealed he had never spoken directly to Friedkin, who has yet to attend a match at Goodison Park or Hill Dickinson Stadium.
