Everton’s Goodison Park may receive a new lease of life amid ambitious plans by the club’s new owners for the women’s team to move into the grand old stadium.
The Friedkin Group is assessing the feasibility of the move as part of a pledge to give Everton Women a suitable home, and executive chairman Marc Watts floated the idea of the Goodison switch in an address to staff on Tuesday.
Everton Women play at nearby Walton Hall Park, which will not be fit to meet the requirements of the Women’s Super League once new regulations are enforced.
