John Textor assessing offers for Crystal Palace stake before Everton takeover
Deal to buy Merseyside club to be agreed by end of weekAmerican must first sell shares at Selhurst Park
John Textor is considering two offers and has serious interest from four other investors for his 45% stake in Crystal Palace as he attempts to accelerate his efforts to buy Everton.
The American has been on Merseyside this week for further talks with Everton’s owner, Farhad Moshiri, over a proposed takeover of the club, with a deal expected to be agreed by the end of the week. Textor became the third party to be granted a period of exclusivity by Blue Heaven Holdings, the company that owns Everton, last week after reigniting his interest in the club when a deal with the Friedkin Group was called off.
