Everton owner Farhad Moshiri has urged Toffees fans to 'bear with us' as the protracted sale of the club enters 'the home straight'.
The Toffees' Fan Advisory Board (FAB) wrote to Moshiri, prospective owners 777 Partners and the Premier League this week seeking answers, with the takeover appearing to have stalled since it was first agreed last September.
Fans also asked for clarification on what would happen if the deal does not proceed, but Moshiri and 777 have replied to assure them the takeover will go ahead and that the delay was down to the Premier League's 'approval process'.
