It’s the season of change for Everton.
December is set to be a frantic month on Merseyside with the Friedkin Group expected to complete their Everton takeover.
The Farhad Moshiri reign is about to run its race after a hit-and-miss eight-and-a-half-year spell at Goodison Park.
The new ownership have given Everton fans great hope for a positive future as there have been rumblings of a potential change in the dugout.
Everton fans have wanted Sean Dyche sacked for weeks, so they could be granted that wish in the near future.
With that said, here is the latest update on Everton-linked manager Graham Potter.

RB Leipzig now want Graham Potter
Everton have been linked to Graham Potter on a number of occasions this season and it’s believed Dan Friedkin has discussed the idea of appointing him.
With Dyche’s men continuing to falter, the new ownership could make an immediate decision to bring in a new manager.
Potter would likely be among their list of candidates, however, he may have already been taken by the time they join Everton.

That’s because RB Leipzig could make an approach for him if results don’t improve for Marco Rose, who is under major pressure, according to Alan Nixon.
Nixon claims Potter could be attracted by Leipzig as he’s always had one eye on making a return to European football.
So, as it stands, Everton may have to rule out the potential hire of Potter.
What Potter has said about a return to the dugout
Speaking to Amazon Prime last week, Potter admitted that he is assessing his options.
“Yeah, of course,” when asked if he’s looking at things.
“As I’ve said before, you’re open to everything. But at the same time I’m really enjoying this [punditry] as well.
“Because it gives you another perspective, you get to see it from your eyes, how the media thinks about the game. That’s always interesting.
“It’s a different lens, that can only make you better once you understand that as well, so I’ve enjoyed that.”
