EVERTON owner Bill Kenwright is ready to sell the club to the right bidder.
The theatre impresario believes he has taken the Blues as far as he can in terms of investment.
He wants a multi-million pound injection that will help the club crack the top four.
But he will sell only if the new owners guarantee stability for the future and put up the cash to help Everton break into top four super power status.
Over the weekend there was speculation foreign investors were lining up takeover bids for Everton if the new stadium deal goes ahead.
The £400m, 50,000-seater modern ground would instantly make the club more valuable and therefore more attractive to would-be buyers.

Evertonians always knew that in a world where football is controlled by super-rich international organisations, a local boy made good through theatre would only allow the club to compete so far.
The obvious lack of funds at David Moyes' disposal this summer has showed Everton at their most cash-strapped in recent memory, struggling and sluggish in friendlies and leaving fans wondering whether the Blues will even be able to field a full compliment of players once the Premier League begins.
This summer has seen a different David Moyes, he just hasn't seemed the same.
He has not had that positive swagger about him, given very few interviews and has been somewhat subdued when speaking to the press and the fans. That all changed today........
Saying he is very hopeful of his new signings arriving soon, that he will sign his new contract and that he expects great things of his team next season has been music to fans' ears - and look what happened last night.
The are suggestions that Mr Wyness and Mr Moyes didn't exactly see eye to eye and it resulted in a 'me or him' ultimatum from Davey to Bill Kenwright. If this is true I am both very relieved and thankful the right choice was made. Despite the belief of some that Wyness leaving is a huge negative, maybe his presence has been the reason for this extremely frustrating summer on the transfer front - speaking from the 'toffee bag being half full' brigade I can see last night's shenanigans being of long term (and summer term) benefit to the blues.
I have tried to avoid the subject.
I have racked my brain for something light hearted and uplifting to say but my mind keeps falling back into the unavoidable issue generations of blues are debating and arguing over.
My attempt to ride along with the process of building a new stadium and accepting whatever the journey brings has failed miserably. I was of the mind that what will be will be and despite my reservations about the move I was willing to put my trust (although some will say I was hugely naive) in the Everton hierachy to deliver a stadium we could not afford to not move to.
