The Athletic - Valuation of Everton Football Club

[Moomin]

Puts us in the same range as Leeds Football Club and values the likes of Fulham and Brighton above us.

 

[GoldenToffee]

... even with an £800 million pounds stadium?

I’ll sleep better knowing this information, thank you.

Considering Utd have 2bn in debt, lose money annually and have to fund a 100,000 stadium build, the 5bn valuation in that article is nonsense.

Forbes recently valued them in the same range.

Remove the dinosaur and will be above Newcastle in no time…

A club is worth what buyers are prepared to pay for it. Exhibit one: Man Utd's 'valuation' by the 'experts' and the actual transaction cost to Ratcliffe:

What a load of hogwash.
It’s worth what someone will pay for it….nothing more, nothing less.
Fulham’s valuation can only be related to the value of the plot of land they’re on. And I have no words on Brightons valuation.

Do we own the stadium or just rent one cheaply on a long lease from a “Stadium company”?

 

[GrandOldTeam]

They forgot to carry the one in the calculation

What utter rubbish is The Athletic.

 

[blulouie]

Stadium alone is worth more than that.

 

[davek]

What utter rubbish is The Athletic.

It's an embarrassment of a website.

I have to laugh they have it hidden behind a firewall. Like trying to flog used toilet paper.

What utter rubbish is The Athletic.

Probably the number one sports online publication in the world.

I subscribe for the NFL articles.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Nonsense
Anything is worth what someone will pay for it and I promise you nobody will ever pay more for Brighton than Everton - even if they have recently turned good profits by buying and selling smartly (I can only assume that’s where they’ve got their overinflated number from)

Then look at West Ham. Traditionally a yo yo club. Negative
Waste loads of money and find themselves wrong end of the table. Negative
Don’t own a ground. Negative
Have an aging poorly performing squad. Negative

But erm they’re in London so put them in seventh
