AliousAccording to Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony, Everton owner Farhad Moshiri might have to wait for his payout when he eventually sells the club.
Speaking on talkSPORT, MacAnthony suggested a scenario where Moshiri could be repaid his stake over a 12-year period due to the other costs involved in purchasing the club.
Following the news of Dan Friedkin’s failed buyout, talkSPORT host Alex Crook doubted that Moshiri would make a profit from a successful takeover.
MacAnthony agreed, stating that while Moshiri might recoup his investment (estimated at £200 million), he likely won’t turn a profit.
MacAnthony proposed that potential buyers might negotiate a long-term repayment plan for Moshiri’s stake, given the other financial commitments involved, such as completing the stadium and taking on existing debts.
This scenario reflects the challenges of Moshiri’s ownership and the financial hurdles facing any potential new owner.
While the long-term prospects, particularly with the new Bramley-Moore Dock stadium, could be lucrative, the immediate financial situation is complex.
The immediate priority for Everton is finding a new buyer following the collapse of the Friedkin Group bid.
While MacAnthony’s suggested scenario is theoretical, it highlights the financial complexities involved in the potential sale of the club.
