Ownership difficulties have plagued Everton for many months now and, unfortunately, there’s currently no clear end in sight.
John Textor has made it clear he’s continue his efforts to take power at the club, and the Friedkins have recently been linked with an interest in a takeover once again.
There is something more from Italy today, which again reflects on the Freidkins and Everton.
Calciomercato look at the Friedkins’ situation at AS Roma, where ongoing protests after Daniele de Rossi’s sacking led to CEO Lina Souloukou’s resignation. The feeling in Italy now is that the American owners have ‘lost the thread’ and they are physically and mentally distant from the club too.
There are signs of clear detachment from Roma and the outlet state that talks to buy Everton have restarted ‘under the radar’.
The sale of Roma is very much possible, Calciomercato believe. It would be a medium-term sale and the Merseyside club could offer them a chance to leave the Roma rubble behind them.
At the same time, they present a bit of a warning to Everton, suggesting that the Friedkins perhaps aren’t great at running a football club. With the blame put on them, it’s said no one at Roma is dealing with football in a ‘serious manner’ and the situation at the Giallorossi is increasingly difficult.
