Everton chief Farhad Moshiri has become the new joint owner of the Royal Liver Building.
Corestate Capital emerged as the successful buyers for the iconic Liverpool landmark after agreeing a £48 million deal with previous owners Royal London.
But it has now been revealed that Moshiri partnered the Luxembourg-based company in their February takeover, just 12 months after his Goodison Park investment.
Since becoming Everton’s largest shareholder, the British-Iranian billionaire has spearheaded plans to move the club to a new stadium at the Bramley Moore Dock.
“I am delighted to have jointly acquired the Royal Liver Building, which is a world-class property in a bustling riverfront location,” Moshiri told the Liverpool Echo.
“Following my investment in Everton last year, I am confident in the prospects for Liverpool as a thriving international city and am pleased that I have been able to make this investment in such a landmark building with potential for further improvement.”
