It is incredible to believe that the Premier League are in a position to calculate Everton's PSR position when the issue of the treatment of interest charges remains unresolved.

the Friedkins objective is to make Everton a major news item in world football, to re-energise the Everton fanbase & massively improve the footballing intellect within the club then Mourinho (assuming he is willing) is the obvious choice.
Not without risks but bring it on

Yes mate. Very soon

Difficult to say without knowing outcome of interest payment treatment. I think it is tight though

The £300m will sit on Everton's balance sheet. The £130m on the Friedkins

It's thought the loans are at base plus 2%, so around 7/7.5 %. Expensive compared to the deal offered but turned down by Moshiri in 2018/19

It might help if the club doesn't win its argument on interest charges re PSR

We are all impatient to see the back of Dyche. In the meantime the Friedkins have rebuilt our balance sheet & stabilised the club financially. Now onto the personnel changes required

A minimum of £234m (cash) of new shares, converted the Moshiri loan to equity (shares, not cash) & as you say the £300m stadium financing via JP Morgan

Details of the Friedkin financial restructuring of Everton emerge - including purchase, repayment of existing debt including A-Cap/777, restructuring & an indication of the value of Moshiri's holdings?

Very possible Laurie and not just because of their football investments with 777
