The Friedkin Group remain on course to complete the Everton takeover and are confident despite legalities in the United States, according to Dave Powell.

The Liverpool Echo journalist reported on 6 December that regulators in Utah ordered three insurance businesses that fall under the A-CAP group of companies, to stop underwriting new businesses after what unfolded with the 777 Partners.

Recently, the Friedkin Group have made moves to restructure the club’s debt so there is confidence that they will be granted the green signal by the Premier League soon.
