Usmanov debate goes on so here is my intake on the matter, as I have stated a few months back my viewing on the matter.
This is just a view that could be possible or wide off the mark.
From the moment Moshi arrived and then the funding of Finch farm, people were putting two and two together.
Now what sticks out like a sore thumb is the selling of his shares at Arsenal, followed up the next Day by Everton making a statement saying they no longer need the funding from Liverpool City Council.
This then followed a message from Usmanov saying, if my friend Moshi needs any help, he only needs to ask.
My intake in the matter is, this is Moshi, s project, Usmanov I feel would certainly invest in Everton, it comes down to either Moshi going it alone, or getting Usmanov on board.
Again could be way off the mark, but from what I see, I think this is down to Moshi, and that is why Usmanov is not giving too much away.
I will be surprised if Usmanov in whatever role or-help, Does not help or fund Everton further, just waiting for the nod from his friend Moshi.
{Ed002's Note - I thought this had all been dealt with. Alisher Usmanov is looking for a club to buy in full and whilst Newcastle is available in the Premier League I am not aware of any interest being shown at this time, or any approach to Mike Ashley. Everton is Moshiri's baby. However, he has held discussions with the represntatives of two Italian sides as I have previously explained.}

My intake is he wants overall control of a club, which 51% would be enough, again it is possible that Moshiri could sell enough to still be the second highest shareholder at the club with the long term being Usmanov as the main majority holder, working side by side again.
Yes this is Moshiri, s project and more than likely will want to go it alone.
All I am saying is not to rule out Usmanov having some sort of input at Everton just yet.

One of Usmanovs press team released the following, Usmanov is keen to remain in English football but it won't be Charlton that he invests in despite the reports.
So that for me rules out the two Italian teams as the top of his list of priority.
{Ed002's Note - I am afraid that is not what was said to CNBC by anyone associated with AU.}

He will come to Everton, wait and see, done deal.
