Everton say they will “assess all options for future ownership” after the deadline for the sale of the club to 777 Partners expired.
The US-based consortium agreed to buy Farhad Moshiri’s 94% stake in the club in September 2023.
777 Partners were given until 05:00 BST on Saturday to complete their share purchase agreement of the Toffees but the deadline passed without resolution.
Everton say they will “continue to operate as usual” as they look at their ownership options.
