The Story in 60 Seconds

Former defender Richard Dunne stated that Everton manager David Moyes has earned a new contract with the club. Moyes originally signed a two-and-a-half-year deal upon replacing Sean Dyche in January 2025, bringing stability to the team under The Friedkin Group's ownership following prolonged relegation battles.

Dunne emphasized that Everton must provide Moyes with adequate transfer backing, noting the squad's lack of depth after finishing the transfer window with only 18 senior outfield players.
