Everton Clinches Record Home Wins Amid Financial and Ownership Turbulence

Everton's strategic victories on the field contrast sharply with off-pitch financial struggles and uncertain ownership, highlighting a season of mixed fortunes.

• Everton secured a record-tying fifth consecutive home win in the Premier League, beating Sheffield United 1-0.
• Abdoulaye Doucouré's header marked a significant contribution to Everton's late-season surge, moving them clear of relegation fears.
• Financial challenges loom large as Everton faces potential player sales and a shaky takeover bid by 777 Partners.
• The club's performance has been a bright spot, with only Arsenal and Manchester City earning more points since April.
• Off-field issues continue to shadow the club, with a potential collapse of a long-running takeover adding to the uncertainty.
