The US consortium that has been attempting to strike a deal to acquire Everton from Farhad Moshiri say that they remain interested in taking over but won't be making any further public statements on the matter.
On Friday it was revealed that the consortium headed by former Manchester United and Chelsea CEO Peter Kenyon, and funded by US real estate tycoon Maciek Kaminski and mining and investment magnate John Thornton had seen its bid to take over Everton hit trouble.
Sources close to Everton owner Moshiri had claimed that the deal was "dead" and that the Everton owner was now looking at other options after the exclusivity agreement that had been in place expired late last week and wasn't extended.
