Usmanov ready to give up Arsenal fight for Everton?

| Thursday, 17 May 2018



Unsmanov has spent years trying to either gain a seat on the Gunners board or convince owner Stan Kroenke to sell his majority stake to him and hand the Usbeki billionaire control.

Kroenke has steadfastly refused on both counts, leaving Usmanov, who has a 30% holding after he bought Moshiri's 15% stake in 2016, out in the cold.

In a report claiming that new director of football Marcel Brands could get £100m for new players, De Telegraaf say, however, that despite his insistence that he has no intention of selling up, Usmanov has grown tired of waiting and Everton could be the beneficiary.

Moshiri currently owns 49.9% of Everton's shares but has the option to increase that over time to around 76% buy buying out the other major shareholders.
