Everton fans might finally see a change at the helm, as Sean Dyche appears to be on the brink of losing his job at Goodison Park.
The Toffees currently sit in 16th place in the Premier League, just one point above the relegation zone, following a lackluster 1-0 loss to Bournemouth on 4 January.
Everton’s form has been dire, with just one win since the start of December. Despite this, Dyche attempted to put a positive spin on the situation, suggesting the team’s form “would be decent if wins were added to it.”
Sean Dyche’s future at Everton in doubt
When The Friedkin Group completed its takeover of the club, there was optimism that Dyche would be given a fair chance to prove himself under the new ownership.
However, recent results from rivals such as Wolves and Ipswich have intensified the pressure, as the new American owners look to avoid the looming threat of relegation.
On 6 January, Sky Sports reported that the Friedkin Group is growing increasingly concerned about Dyche’s performance, and urgent discussions are already taking place about his future.
It seems the ownership group is realizing that decisive action is necessary. Dyche’s dismissal now appears inevitable, as Everton’s struggles show no signs of abating.
The Friedkins, known for their ruthless decisions at Roma—where they have sacked three managers in recent months—might now bring that same determination to Merseyside.
With critical talks underway, it seems likely that the club will soon move in a new direction. Dyche, who has struggled to inspire the team, may be better off stepping aside to allow for a smoother transition.
The timing is right for change
With an FA Cup clash against Peterborough next, followed by Premier League games against Aston Villa and Tottenham at Goodison Park, this moment provides an opportune time to make a managerial change.
The Friedkin Group has a chance to make an immediate impact by bringing in a fresh approach to steer the club away from relegation danger. If a change is coming, now is the time to act.
