Everton takeover sees club leapfrog Man Utd, Liverpool and Arsenal in owner net worth table - gallery

At points this summer, it had seemed as if Manchester United were the next club set to confirm a takeover but now it appears to be North West rivals Everton.

777 Partners have struck a deal with Farhad Moshiri to buy the controversial owner's full stake in the club as a new era dawns for the blue side of Merseyside.

The investors come with bags of money too, making the Toffees one of the Premier League's richest clubs, which may frustrate some Red Devils supporters as the Glazers continue to stall on a deal with Sir Jim Ratcliffe or Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani.

Here's how the net worth of Everton will compare with United and other top-flight rivals once the takeover is complete.
