David Moyes has returned as Everton manager following Sean Dyche’s sacking, the Premier League club announced on Saturday.
“David is widely recognised as one of the Premier League’s most experienced and accomplished managers, having led Everton for more than 500 matches from 2002 to 2013,” a statement on the club’s website read.
Everton Football Club is delighted to welcome back David Moyes as their new Manager, effective immediately. ✍️— Everton (@Everton) January 11, 2025
The 61-year-old Scot has been out of work since leaving West Ham at the end of last season.
He is set to start his second spell as Everton boss against Aston Villa in the Premier League on Wednesday.
Moyes remains popular with Everton fans after his 11-year stint in charge from 2002 to 2013, a period that included a fourth place finish in 2005 and an FA Cup final appearance in 2009.
Dyche’s two-year reign came to end on Thursday after Everton’s defeat at Bournemouth on January 4.
