Everton are yet to make a decision on David Moyes, with his current contract set to enter its final year at the end of the season.

According to journalist Patrick Boyland, the Toffees will likely come to a conclusion over the Scottish manager’s future in the summer.

The Athletic journalist has revealed that there’s an appreciation for the work the 62-year-old head coach has done at Hill Dickinson Stadium, taking the Blues from relegation contenders to challengers for a European finish in the Premier League.

Since replacing Sean Dyche at the Merseyside outfit, the former West Ham United manager has turned their fortunes around, and many fans in L3 would definitely want him to stay for longer.

Moyes’ future at Hill Dickinson Stadium would certainly be safe if he can qualify for Europe and The Friedkin Group shouldn’t hesitate to hand him a new deal.

David Moyes contract to secure transfer stability at Everton

Jack Grealish loves playing under Moyes and has made it no secret after kick-starting his career at the Toffees.

A new contract for the Scottish manager could potentially see the Manchester City loanee commit his long-term future at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

The former West Ham boss will undoubtedly have had a say in the recent transfer recruitment at the Blues and it would make sense to continue with the squad he’s building.

A change in manager can surely lead to a tweak in the Merseyside outfit’s recruitment strategy, which wouldn’t make sense for them after pulling off some impressive deals last summer.

Writing in The Athletic on 10 April, Boyland said, “I don’t think a decision has been made yet on Moyes’ future. From what I’m told, that’ll likely be one for the summer, but there is definitely an appreciation of the job he has done so far in turning Everton from relegation battlers into contenders for a European place.”

Dan Friedkin can make history at Hill Dickinson Stadium

When Dan Friedkin took over Everton, he undoubtedly would have had ambitions of winning titles with them.

TFG arguably can’t ask for a better manager than Moyes to end the Toffees’ over two-decade trophy drought.

The Scottish head coach led the Hammers to Conference League glory in 2024 and there’s no reason he can’t do the same with the Blues.

Appointing Moyes was one of the best decisions the American owners made after taking over and he has earned a contract extension at Hill Dickinson.
