Josh Wander of 777 Partners has been elected to the board of the European Clubs Association

One of the owners of an investment firm eyeing up a stake in Everton has elected to the board of the organisation that represents the interests of European football’s top professional clubs.

Wander was elected as the subdivision two representative for the influential ECA board, with his election coming at a time when 777 have reignited their interest in acquiring a stake in Everton following the collapse of the deal with New York-based firm MSP Sports Capital last month. 777, who already have majority positions with Standard Liege, Vasco da Gama, Red Star FC, Genoa and Hertha Berlin, held numerous talks with Everton owner Farhad Moshiri and his representatives earlier in the year before the decision was made to grant MSP a period of exclusivity.

“It’s so absurd to me that people say we’re not serious when we bought seven clubs in the last 18 months. Is there anyone in the world that’s been more serious about buying football clubs in history than Josh Wander?”
