Former Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan has weighed in on John Textor’s interest in Everton. Textor, who is looking to sell his 45% stake in Palace, has expressed his desire to purchase Everton.
Speaking on talkSPORT, Jordan acknowledged that Everton is a bigger club than Crystal Palace. He pointed out that Everton has a larger scale, with plans for a new stadium and a rich heritage and history. While they may not have won titles in recent years, Jordan believes that from an impartial football investor’s perspective, Everton is the better option.
According to the Liverpool Echo, the potential sale of Everton to 777 Partners seems to be falling through. This development opens up possibilities for Textor to make his move.
In summary, Textor’s interest in Everton has caught the attention of Simon Jordan, who recognizes the allure of the club’s stature and potential. With the previous sale plans appearing to falter, Textor could find an opportunity to make his mark at Everton.
