Everton to offer Moyes a new deal | OneFootball

Everton are preparing to reward manager David Moyes with a new contract after a remarkable turnaround at the Merseyside outfit, according to The Guardian.

Everton were drifting dangerously close to relegation when Moyes returned in January last year, inheriting a side short on confidence and direction.

Fast forward to now, and they are sitting eighth on the league table and within touching distance of a European slot.

It has been a dramatic shift in trajectory for the Toffees, one that underlines Moyes’ massive impact.

Everton’s hierarchy, led by the Friedkin Group, initially viewed Moyes as a stabilising figure. Instead, he has masterminded a serious push up the league table.

Everton have developed structure, resilience, and a clearer attacking identity, with experienced additions fitting seamlessly into Moyes’ system.

There is now growing confidence within the club that Moyes will extend his stay beyond his current deal, with formal talks expected at the end of the season.

Everton are also prepared to hand him greater influence over recruitment, a move that reflects both trust and recognition of how he has rebuilt the squad.

For Everton, tying Moyes down is only part of the job. The next phase is far more demanding.

If they are serious about sustaining this upward curve, they must back Moyes decisively in the transfer market.

The Toffees need a reliable striker to convert their progress into goals, as well as another marquee attacker capable of shifting games in tight moments.

The midfield also requires reinforcement, particularly a defensive presence who can anchor transitions and protect the back line with Idrissa Gana Gueye advancing in age.

Equally important are upgrades at both full-back areas. The Toffees desperately need more quality in those positions.

Everton have momentum, but without decisive investment, they risk stalling. This summer will define whether Everton merely competed or truly arrived.
