Dan Plumley has emphasized that any subsequent proposal may be more difficult to complete if 777 Partners’ proposed acquisition of Everton is turned down.
The financial expert acknowledged that talks with possible new owners would need to take place over the £140 million that the American investment firm had invested in the club.
It was explained as an additional obstacle to get past in the event that the Premier League chooses to prevent 777 Partners from forward with their proposal.
On January 8, The Athletic revealed that the club had received an additional £40 million for working capital and Bramley-Moore Dock.
This is all taking place against the backdrop of the Premier League’s second charge and 10-point deduction, with relations between the two parties not exactly cordial.
“I think the reality of that is yes,” Plumley exclusively told Goodison News.
“If it’s not 777 who ends up being the owners of Everton Football Club and it’s somebody else, then you’ve got £140million worth of money there that 777 have put in that you’ve got to deal with, there’s got to be a negotiation to be done on that and how that plays out.
“I can’t see any other way, whereby if it’s not 777 and somebody else, that doesn’t put another block or hurdle to jump over as that money has been committed to the club, and it’s not them who then take ownership, another owner has got to sort that out as well.”
