Erm, why would Usmanov think about buying a club to pass it on to his family now? If there is anything that could happen, he would do it for himself.

My gut is saying Moshiri's entry opens a lot of possibilities, including Usmanov, but it wouldn't make sense for any other big money to come in so soon unless either (a) he is planning this whole transition with Moshiri, (b) Moshiri sold him on the entire transition plan, or (c) the transition is complete and we're on the up and up.

(b) and (c) are not happening and (a) seems highly unlikely to happen hush hush. I wouldn't expect new money coming in from investors till Moshiri sorts out the books. And that would pretty much mean a few players on the board would have been kicked out.

But when the Moores family owned Everton and another Moores owned Liverpool that was OK. Fair enough it wasn't the Premier League. I shall take your comment as valid and true.........until I can find some words proving otherwise..... lol
 

Maybe the other ITK heard a new investor was Russian and thought of Usmanov. Might be someone else entirely.

He could but he'd still fall foul of PL rules - it's not going to happen, he'd have to sell his shares to an unrelated party to acquire shares in any other PL club.

I just pulled up a 560 page document, and tbh I probably couldn't stay awake reading it, so I'll go with what you say......

And something that's always been at the back of my mind is that Moshiri and Usmanov are still business partners - outside football of course - but isn't that still a conflict of interest?

I'm listening to @The Esk on this.

I'm at a loss as to why a lot of people think Usmanov is coming in a cloak-and-dagger manner.

And why would he 'send' Moshiri first? Surely he'd just go ahead with it himself?

Personally I'm happy with Moshiri, let's see where he takes us.

I'm more than happy with having Moshiri on board.......I do however believe that he will bring others to invest.......

Yes, but it won't be this summer imo. It would be wise for him to defray his risks and liability, but can't see him doing a makeover for us and trying to sell the idea of Everton to investors.
