Everton agree naming rights deal for Finch Farm training ground with USM Holdings, the company run by Arsenal shareholder Alisher Usmanov

Everton have agreed a naming rights deal for their Finch Farm training ground with USM Holdings, a Russian-based company run by Arsenal shareholder Alisher Usmanov.

The deal, combined with new shirt sponsors, will bring in £75million over the next five years for Everton who on Thursday also confirmed the £7.5million signing of Charlton's teenage forward Ademola Lookman.

Usmanov, who has a 30.04 per cent stake in Arsenal, is a business partner of Everton majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri and his new investment will see Everton's Halewood-based training ground renamed USM Finch Farm and raise USM's profile with global marketing rights.
