Everton appoint Sean Dyche as new manager

Former Burnley boss returns to management with Toffees

Dyche takes over with Everton 19th in the Premier League

Everton have appointed Sean Dyche as their new manager on a two-and-a-half-year contract. The 51-year-old returns to management after leaving Burnley in April 2022.

Dyche takes over at Goodison Park with Everton 19th in the Premier League, just one point above the relegation zone.

The Toffees have won just one of their last 10 league games and are in desperate need of a turnaround.

Dyche is a experienced manager who has a proven track record in the Premier League.

He led Burnley to two promotions to the top flight and kept them in the league for six seasons.

Dyche is known for his pragmatic approach and his ability to get his teams well-organized.

He will be hoping to have a similar impact at Everton and help the club avoid relegation.

Dyche's first game in charge of Everton will be at home to Arsenal on Saturday, February 4.
