Everton: 777 CFO leaves as takeover notice is about to expire; this could make business more difficult.

Everton: 777 CFO leaves as takeover notice is about to expire; this could make business more difficult.

According to Semafor Business, the chief financial officer of 777 Partners, Damien Alfalla, has resigned amidst the company’s bid to acquire Everton, with Brett Kaufmann set to replace him.

This development comes as 777 Partners has been providing significant loans

to Everton while awaiting approval for their takeover bid of Farhad Moshiri’s stake in

the club, initially agreed upon in September.

The timing of Alfalla’s departure, just as Everton is expected to learn the outcome

of the takeover bid before the end of the month, raises questions about the stability of the situation.

Despite reports suggesting financial difficulties within 777’s business portfolio,

the FA has reportedly approved the takeover bid, adding significance to Alfalla’s resignation.

While 777 has publicly expressed confidence in completing the takeover, concerns

may arise within the Everton fanbase regarding potential complications resulting from Alfalla’s departure.

Whether coincidental or not, the departure of a key figure at this stage is viewed with skepticism, especially considering the significant impact it could have on the proposed

management of the club under new ownership.

Ultimately, Everton supporters will hope that any major changes at this stage

do not compromise the club’s operations, should the takeover bid proceed as expected.
