Everton FC Due Diligence
Strategising on an investment in one of England’s most storied clubs
Challenge
Planning investment into a club that had underperformed and faced a threat of relegation.
Solution
Our modelling enabled The Friedkin Group to develop different investment scenarios, based on a detailed understanding of the interaction between spend, efficiency of spend, and luck.
This probabilistic modeling was combined with a complete analysis of financial constraints, the squad, planned transfer activity and near-term prospects for the team.
Impact
The Friedkin Group completed their transaction of Everton in December 2024, and helped steer the club away from relegation in their final season at Goodison Park.
