The Friedkin Group appear to have found the man to replace Sean Dyche, and it may not be long until we see some movement at Everton.
EXCLUSIVE by Graeme Bailey
Everton find themselves in a spot of bother after a 4-0 defeat to Manchester United, which always felt like it was coming after a string of disappointing performances.
Supporters have made their feelings clear about Sean Dyche, with many calling for his sacking.
Recent claims suggest that Dyche is under no pressure until the Friedkin Group officially complete their takeover, but that may be soon with the Everton takeover now ‘very close’.
And Graeme Bailey has stated that a change could be a lot closer than we think, with the Friedkin Group already lining up their replacement for the Englishman.

David Moyes lined up as Sean Dyche’s replacement after rejecting the Leicester City job
David Moyes was being considered as a replacement for Steve Cooper at Leicester City.
And we have previously reported that Moyes was being eyed as a potential replacement, but more details have now emerged which makes it feel even more real.
Now, speaking exclusively to Everton News, Graeme Bailey has revealed that one of the reasons David Moyes rejected the Leicester City job was because he has his eye on a return to Goodison Park.

What David Moyes told Alan Shearer on Match of the Day about his future recently
David Moyes appeared on Match of the Day recently alongside Alan Shearer.
The former Everton boss spoke to Shearer about his future plans, and remained very coy.
“He wants to get back into management, that’s what he said, but he wants the right opportunity at the right time.”
Now, this doesn’t sound like a man who is about to take charge at Everton, but he’s not exactly going to announce it to the world or a pundit that could spurt it out on a podcast.
Given he’s already spent 11 and a half years on Merseyside and knows what it takes to succeed in the Premier League and in Europe, he’d be a pretty sensible appointment.
