David Moyes Set to Make a Comeback as Everton’s New Manager
David Moyes is set to make a sensational return to Everton as the club’s new manager, with an official announcement expected this weekend, according to reports.
The former Manchester United and West Ham boss has reportedly agreed to a two-and-a-half-year deal that will keep him at Goodison Park until 2027.
This marks a dramatic chapter in the Toffees’ journey under their new owners, The Friedkin Group, who appear determined to steer the club back to glory.
Moyes, now 61, is no stranger to the blue side of Merseyside.
His first stint at Everton lasted 11 remarkable years, from 2002 to 2013.
During that period, he managed over 500 games and transformed the club from perennial relegation contenders to serious European hopefuls.
His most notable achievement was guiding Everton to a fourth-place finish in the Premier League in 2005.
Moyes left Everton in 2013 to take over the reins at Manchester United, succeeding the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson.
Although his time at Old Trafford was short-lived, he went on to rebuild his reputation.
Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey has opened up about a difficult period in his career, revealing that he almost stepped away from football.
Speaking during a recent interview, Bassey shared that he once made a personal promise to himself to quit pursuing football professionally if he failed to secure a spot at a professional club.
“I remember being 15 and going into my final year, and I told myself that if I didn’t get into a professional club, I would quit football. It was that simple,” he said.
“I would just stop pursuing it seriously and only play for fun. Thank God I eventually got a club, because I honestly don’t know where I would be otherwise.”
It has been reported that the Confederation of African Football (CAF) fined Egypt $5,000 following their clash with Zimbabwe for failing to manage post-match media obligations.
It was noted that after the match, the Egyptian players ignored the media. This action was said to be a violation of CAF’s media regulations, which led to the fine being imposed.
Head of the Super Eagles, Eric Chelle, shared that the big-name players on the team are not happy about being benched.
He recalled when he took out Samuel Chukwueze during the match against Tanzania.
“Yes, of course, we’ve in this team a lot of big names. They are competitors; they aren’t happy when they go to the bench,” Chelle said at his post-match interview.”
“My job is to make choices, and we’re playing a 4-4-2 diamond, and at this moment I feel we have to protect the wing.”
