They'll be getting close to Sterling money for him, it would be great business!

They'll be wondering where the Stones money is for a good few years you'd imagine now

They will indeed since they have already mortgaged future player sales along with future TV money.

How do you mortgage future player sales?

Its not uncommon, a lot of the smaller clubs in the league do it, I'm not sure to what scale but I thought what Everton are doing is not far from the norm for some?

They are on similar deals to the likes that WHU were, the Southampton were and Fulham still are.

A facebook friend like this share by one of his friends. So small time and bitter

When I see dickheads like Jamie Carragher yapping on about Liverpool being a big club, big club this, big club that.

You, Mr Carragher are the same as old British people chatting about "when we ruled the world with an empire"

No one cares an it was generations ago, you ain't nothing no more

And then he calls Tottenham a small club. Let me paint you a pitcher you tramp, Liverpools a massive city with only 1 other team. Tottenham is a high street in a run down area of North London.

Singing the same **** song every week doesn't impress me, neither does Michael Owen slowly murdering the champions for everyone watching

And let's be honest, your just a bitter old man because you spent your entire career wondering how a man who doesn't train, who only has one knee and was mostly injured was twice the player you ever were.

Everton takeover: US investors explore potential purchase

By Phil McNulty & Richard Conway

Everton are the subject of renewed speculation over a potential takeover.

City of London financial sources have told BBC Sport that American investors, with links to Major League Soccer side Sporting Kansas City, are exploring purchasing the Premier League club.

An asking price of £225m is believed to have been set by Everton's owners although it is unknown if the US consortium are prepared to match that.

The possible deal has also been reported in Kansas City.

SKC representative Mike Illig has publicly stated he is an Everton fan, posting pictures of a visit to Goodison Park on his Twitter account on Thursday.

Illig attended former Everton striker Duncan Ferguson's testimonial against Villarreal at Goodison Park in August. His picture of the stadium was retweeted by Robb Heineman, Sporting Kansas City's CEO, increasing speculation that a deal is under discussion.

Bill Kenwright is open to a takeover at Everton but only if the right deal is in place
Cliff Illig, Mike's father, is the principal investor in the group of Kansas City entrepreneurs that purchased Kansas City Wizards from the Hunt Sports Group in 2006. He is also co-founder of the Cerner Corporation health care information technology group.

Everton chairman Bill Kenwright has openly admitted the club is for sale and has been seeking investment but failed to attract a buyer.

The theatre impresario, who bought the club from former owner Peter Johnson for £20m on Boxing Day 1999, said as far back as November 2007: "If the right person stands in front of me and wants to take this club forward then I will sell."

Everton did not comment when contacted about suggestions that a takeover deal is under discussion.

Takeovers are kopite behavior.

Der Red****e have had too much media exposure recently so they need to make sure everyone knows that they still exist.

Kenwright wanted planning permission to relocate to walton hall park. I dont think it has been granted, as yet.
I doubt the current owner would ever have the cash to build a new stadium but it might look a better prospect for new owners if the council give pp for a new build.
