Everton F.C.

Everton Football Club () is a professional association football club based in Liverpool, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. Founded in 1878, the club was a founding member of the Football League in 1888, and was a founding member of the Premier League in 1992, one of just three clubs to have been a founding member of both leagues. Everton are one of the oldest and most successful clubs in England, having won fifteen major trophies: nine football league titles, five FA Cups and one European Cup Winners' Cup. Everton won their first League Championship during the 1890–91 season. After winning four more League championships and two FA Cups, the club experienced a post–Second World War lull until a revival in the 1960s. A period of sustained success came in the mid-1980s, when Everton won a further two League championships, one FA Cup and the 1985 European Cup Winners' Cup. The club's most recent major trophy was the 1995 FA Cup. Everton is the club with the second-longest continuous presence in English top-flight football, and ranks third in the all-time points rankings. As of August 2025, the club have competed in the top division for a record 123 seasons, more than any other club, having missed only four top-flight seasons (1930–31, 1951–52, 1952–53, and 1953–54). The club's traditional kit is royal blue shirts with white shorts and socks. Everton play at the Hill Dickinson Stadium as of the 2025–26 season. Everton had played at their previous home ground Goodison Park since 1892, having moved from their original home at Anfield following a disagreement with the landowner John Houlding over their rent. The club's supporters are colloquially known as "Evertonians", the "Toffees" or the "Blues". Everton have a long-standing rivalry with nearby club Liverpool, with whom they contest the Merseyside derby. The club was owned by Farhad Moshiri, after he bought 49.9% of the club's shares in 2016. As of May 2023, the club's value was $744 million. The club's revenue and operating income for the 2022–23 season were $242 million and -$23 million respectively. In December 2024, American billionaire Dan Friedkin purchased the club.
