Amanda Staveley and Everton owner Dan Friedkin
Since leaving Newcastle United, it's been very clear that she is more than interested in returning to English football ownership.
Interest in Tottenham and West Ham has failed, with other doors opening outside of London.
The iPaper has reported that talks have taken place between Everton and Staveley's PCP Capital Partners.
Despite them mentioning their ongoing interest in West Ham, too, that appears to be hitting a brick wall.
And now, the latest developments at Everton surely keeps their attention peaked at the right moment.
What's the latest with Everton and US investment?
Many believe American investment is the best hope for the Friedkin Group to leave Hill Dickinson Stadium behind.
At a valuation of £800million, nothing has happened to suggest that people are flocking towards Everton to take charge.
Tony Scholes and Gary Mellor are known to make deals in the United States, and were VIP guests at the win over Newcastle, according to Alan Nixon.
Despite that, two major players have been ruled out.
Michael Dell himself shut down Everton rumours, despite the mega-wealthy billionaire being the dream owner of many.
And now, Kevin Malone looks to have been cancelled out, despite his previous bids to take over the Blues.
So, can Staveley beat American competition?
Why Amanda Staveley could win the race
Staveley has one thing going for her, she knows exactly how the Premier League works, given her work with Newcastle.
Her connections and work behind PiF's takeover at St James' Park was huge, and could work wonders on Merseyside.
With links to the Abu Dhabi royal family, as well as Qatari investors, is a huge carrot for any football club looking to progress.
But, she has shown her work in the States, too.
While LIV Golf didn't exactly work, she advised on the deal with the PGA Tour.
Attending several high-profile American get-togethers, including the Milken Institute Global Conference, she has been in the same room as many possible competitors.
It's quite alarming that not one, but more American investors are dropping out, possibly looking at the Friedkins wanting out after less than two years as a warning.
Staveley will look at that as an opportunity, and something she could take advantage of with her latest takeover pledge in the Premier League.
Several things are up in the air at Everton right now: David Moyes' future, Jack Grealish's behaviour and now the takeover.
Could Staveley provide the answers to bring the much-needed calm?
All roads are leading that way.
