Everton have received a £46million injection from their owners in the form of a new share issue, sources have told Football Insider.
A Companies House submission published on Thursday (4 September), backdated to 12 August, revealed Everton Football Club Company Limited has issued 262,863 shares.
Each share was purchased at £175 per one pound share, taking the total investment to £46million.
The Friedkin Group (TFG), which is spearheaded by Dan Friedkin, took over Everton last December, bringing to an end Farhad Moshiri’s eight-year spell on Merseyside.
Everton fans saw their shares in the club diluted earlier this year after Friedkin initially secured a 99.5 per cent stake.

Friedkin is looking to put Everton on a better financial footing after the club faced various profit and sustainability (PSR) issues under Moshiri.
Everton are now in a stronger PSR position, but they are still believed to be slightly restrained following their previous issues, having been deduced eight points for two spending breaches in the 2023-24 campaign.
