Everton looking to buy Nelson Dock

Everton have begun negotiations to buy Nelson Dock, which is located next to Bramley-Moore Dock.

Everton’s interim chief executive, Colin Chong, told delegates at MIPIM property conference in the south of France about TFG’s plans to expand ownership of the adjacent dock that is located immediately to the south of Bramley-Moore Dock –  an area he said he has always had ‘envious eyes’ on. 

He said Everton’s new owners The Friedkin Group have “tasked him with looking for a sports-led redevelopment that could be accommodated on Nelson Dock and maybe even further if we can get the right partners to invest.”

Negotiations for the club to acquire Nelson Dock from current owners, Peel Holdings, are now underway.
