It is an exciting time for the Toffees, who are preparing for their first season in the Hill Dickinson Stadium, after leaving Goodison Park.

They are also in the midst of their first summer with new owners, after The Friedkin Group completed a takeover at Everton back in December, acquiring Farhad Moshiri’s controlling stake in the club.

Now, the Merseyside club could be set for some extra investment in the very near future.

Everton’s former chief Keith Wyness – who served as CEO at Goodison Park between 2004 and 2009 and now runs a football consultancy advising elite clubs – revealed that there are two groups interested in becoming minority stakeholders in the women’s side.

Speaking on the new edition of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, Wyness insisted that The Friedkin Group will bring in more investment from America.

Everton Women will play their games at Goodison Park next season, which increases the value of the side.

Wyness added that the extra investment in the women’s team will give the club more PSR headroom.

He told Football Insider‘s Inside Track podcast: “I understand there are two groups looking to be minority investors in the Everton women’s team.

“We may see interest coming from America through the Friedkin group as well, which would bring in some other investors, and so that would be a very good situation.

And I think they’ve been very smart with the way they’ve packaged in Goodison.

“Overall, it’s great news and I’m sure there’ll be investment in the women’s team.

“I think they’ve been smart the way they’ve done it, and I hope they move quickly and get it done.

I love it.”

Meanwhile, Everton could sign Tyler Dibling this summer for half of Southampton’s initial asking price, sources have told Football Insider.

Dibling is seen by Everton as an alternative to City’s Grealish after their struggles to agree a loan move for the England winger, but a deal for the 19-year-old could also prove difficult.

Football Insider revealed in May that even Tottenham wouldn’t pay Dibling’s new price tag of £55m in the wake of Southampton’s relegation, and a further fall to £45–50m has opened the door for Everton.

Everton have now joined the race for Dibling after that significant reduction on his original valuation, but sources have told Football Insider that a £45–50m could still be too big an obstacle for the Toffees.
