Everton’s former manager and oligarch sponsor held discussionsIssue may be behind Ancelotti’s high court case against Everton
Carlo Ancelotti, the decorated manager who is suing his former club Everton, held discussions with a controversial Russian oligarch about a series of incentive payments that were dependent on Everton’s performance in the Premier League.
The Russian-Uzbek billionaire Alisher Usmanov proposed the bonuses at about the time Ancelotti was in talks to take the Everton job in 2019, sources say. The suggestion raises questions about whether a proposed side deal between Ancelotti and Usmanov is behind the manager filing a claim against Everton in London’s high court.
