Everton Women's recent sale for £49.2m has sparked interest in the club's financial dealings. The sale, which was part of an internal restructuring, has generated a significant accounting profit for the club. According to the club's accounts for the 2024-25 season, the sale of the women's team and Goodison Park to a new holding company, EFCW Holding Company Limited, resulted in a near-£50m accounting gain. This move has improved the club's profit and sustainability position, with revenues climbing to a club record £196.7m and the club's pre-tax loss falling to £8.6m. The sale was completed on June 27, three days before the end of the financial year, and was ratified by the Premier League, Women's Super League, and the FA. The Friedkin Group, the club's new owners, have stated that the primary driver for the move was to separate the operations of the men's and women's teams and attract fresh investment for the latter. In December, the club announced that Canadian group GED Investments had acquired a minority stake in the women's team, allowing them to establish 'fair market value' for the wider transaction to Roundhouse Capital, the vehicle through which The Friedkin Group owns Everton. Other Premier League teams, such as Chelsea and Aston Villa, have also internally restructured their women's teams, enjoying a paper accounting gain in the process. However, UEFA rules prevent clubs from including intragroup sales in their football earnings rule calculation, which could be a problem for Everton if they qualify for Europe next season. The club's accounting profit on the transactions counted towards their PSR calculation, just as it did for Chelsea and Villa. The sale of the women's team has also raised questions about the Premier League's financial rules and how they will impact the club's eligibility for European competition. As the club looks to the future, the sale of the women's team will likely have a significant impact on their financial dealings and competitiveness in the Women's Super League. With the club's new owners and investment, Everton Women will be looking to improve their performance on the pitch and challenge for top honors in the league. The club's fans will be eagerly watching the team's progress and hoping for a successful season. The sale of the women's team is a significant development in the club's history and will likely have a lasting impact on the team's future.
