Goodison Insight: David Moyes Likely to Return to Everton Following Recent Developments

Everton currently sit 15th in the Premier League after 14 matches, having secured only three wins, leaving them just five points clear of the relegation zone and Ipswich Town.

Despite their precarious position, Evertonians have reason for optimism.

Sky Sports reports that the Friedkin Group (TFG) has received Premier League approval to complete a takeover of the club.

One of TFG’s first decisions at Goodison Park may involve replacing the current manager, Sean Dyche.

Their track record with AS Roma, another club under their ownership, shows a willingness to make managerial changes, having appointed four managers since 2023.

This suggests Dyche’s position could be under threat if results do not improve.

Rumors of potential replacements have emerged.

According to Alan Nixon (8 December), former Everton manager David Moyes is open to returning to management after leaving West Ham in the summer.

Moyes is reportedly waiting for the right opportunity, and TFG may turn to him once the takeover is finalized, which could happen later in December.

While Dyche deserves credit for his efforts last season, football is ultimately judged by results, and his team’s inconsistency this term is a concern.

A recent 4-0 victory over Wolves has provided some breathing space, as has the postponed Merseyside derby, but it may only delay the inevitable.

Should TFG take charge, a managerial change could soon follow as the club looks to rebuild and move forward.
