We have been in contact with Michael and his advisors - and unfortunately he doesn't see Everton as a team he would choose at this present time.

We're constantly in contact with our advisors, who we consider partners. We consider these advisors as institutional clients, who are smart and sophisticated.

Progressive and good organisations trust their hardworking employees more than their retained advisors.

We would make an unbeatable team [to Michael Ovitz]

When and if she is ready, she will contact you.
