Former Manchester United head coach David Moyes is about to embark on the second Everton coaching tour of his career, according to veteran reporter David Ornstein of The Athletic, a weighty revelation that is expected to be unveiled in the next 24 hours. For Everton, who have been plagued by recent turmoil, this is undoubtedly a timely shot in the arm.
Following Thursday's announcement of the departure of original manager Dyche, new owners Friedkin Group have made a decisive move to name Moyes as their first choice to fill the vacancy. Negotiations between the Friedkin Group and Moyes are said to be progressing at a rapid pace, with both sides having reached initial agreement on contractual terms, and the return of Moyes appears to be on the cards.
Moyes was in charge of Everton for 11 years between 2002 and 2013, during which time he led the team to nine top ten finishes in the Premier League, and took the team to the Champions League qualifying rounds in 2005 and the FA Cup final in 2009. He has been universally praised by the fans for his coaching excellence and his deep love for Everton.
After leaving Everton, Moyes was briefly in charge of Manchester United, but was sacked after only 10 months due to poor performance. Since then, he has moved around to clubs such as Real Sociedad, Sunderland and West Ham United. Although these experiences are not as brilliant as the one he had during his time at Everton, his coaching experience and tactical wisdom are still well known in the industry.
The Friedkin Group firmly believe that David Moyes is the best man to ensure Everton's stay in the Premier League. They expect Moyes to help the team get out of the doldrums and lay a solid foundation for the team's long-term goals. It is said that the length of Moyes' contract will reflect the club management's trust and expectation in him.
With the imminent return of David Moyes, Everton fans are looking forward to the future of the team. They firmly believe that under the leadership of Moyes, Everton will return to its former glory.
