Newspaper writer Alan Nixon says that Kevin Malone is in England and prepared to step in to save Everton.

Nixon disclosed on May 5th, via his official Patreon ReluctantNicko, that Malone—the former general manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers—is leading a group prepared to take over in the event that issues with 777 Partners persist.
Among the many Americans who are interested in the Premier League is the American Baseball Guru, a well-liked figure in the US sports community.

Malone knows the owner of Liverpool, John Henry, who created the blueprint for the baseball-to-football conversion.
Kevin Malone is expected to be welcomed to Goodison Park by Everton supporters.

Goodison Park supporters are presumably just relieved to learn of a takeover update that isn’t predicated on 777 Partners’ continuous financial difficulties.

Farhad Moshiri ought to be on the phone right now if Malone is serious about buying Everton.
The longer it takes 777 Partners to give the Toffees the financial relief they need, the more problems the team will face.

Goodison Park’s debt is still growing, and Everton can no longer afford to stay this long.

They need a solution, and now that he’s in England, it appears that Malone is prepared to offer them one.

The former owner of the LA Dodgers may not be prepared to buy the property just yet, but his interest should at least spur 777 Partners to action.

In any event, Everton needs this positive takeover update more than anything else. The more possible owners, the better.
