Everton identify new home

Everton FC have identified a site for a new stadium.  Walton Hall Park is a recreation area owned by the city council about a mile from Goodison Park.   Everton hope that a new stadium could attract new investment.

The 50,000 seat stadium could be financed by Liverpool City Council as part of a regeneration process with Everton becoming tenants.   A naming rights deal could subsidise the project.

Everton are hoping for a deal similar to that of Manchester City at the Etihad.  City pay the council a proportion of ticket income above Maine Road’s 32,000 capacity which has produced about £2m a year for the council since 2003.   However, the council spent £22m to convert the stadium for City.
