The Friedkin Group have landed on Merseyside and provided Everton with a new lease of life.
Farhad Moshiri’s time at the club is quickly becoming something of the distant past following a seriously impressive start to 2025.
Everton have created a huge gap to the sides battling relegation, with the Blues now planning ahead for next season.
David Moyes has shared Everton’s plans ahead of the summer, with the 61-year-old having already spoken to the incoming Angus Kinnear.
It is not just on the pitch where The Friedkin Group are looking to take big strides in pushing the club forward, though.

The Friedkins’ off-field Everton plans shared
A lot of good work has gone on behind-the-scenes at Everton since the new owners were handed the keys in December.
The Friedkins have secured a £350m agreement to finance the borrowings on the new stadium at a much lower interest rate.

And according to Chong, the investments are not going to stop once Bramley-Moore Dock is opened this summer.
“Our owners are very keen to secure Nelson Dock because they believe they’ll do something good with it regardless – that’s their mindset, which is a breath of fresh air,” said Chong.
“If I was given a wish list, that would be on the top of it, secure Nelson Dock and protect the asset that we’ve just developed.”
“We’re in a very unique position, there’s over £750m of investment already, and that’s probably the hardest part about sports-led regeneration.”
Everton are also expected to be busy in the transfer market, with the club needing to replace a number of players set to leave at the end of their deals.
After years of struggle under Moshiri, the future is looking much brighter for the Toffees with the Friedkins putting their money where their mouth is.
Goodison Park plans shared at Everton
An emotional goodbye awaits Everton when they move on from Goodison Park at the end of the season.
Everton fans are excited about Bramley-Moore Dock, but they will be bidding farewell to their historic home.
The new Everton stadium will provide a huge PSR boost for the club, which Goodison could never have offered.
But it seems Everton are not yet prepared to fully bid farewell to Goodison with some new plans now being suggested by Chong.
“We have no plans to demolish – we don’t have to straight away,” he said.
“We’re leaving a Premier League-fit stadium, it’s just not big enough for Everton’s growth plans, but it’s more than adequate to see women’s football through, probably for the next 10 or 15 years.”
