REPORT: Southgate to replace Premier League manager who managed Iwobi

Everton's impending takeover by Roma owner Dan Friedkin is set to bring significant changes to the Merseyside club, as per talkSPORT.

The deal will not only wipe out the Toffees debt, allowing them to move into their new stadium without financial burden, but it could also lead to a managerial shakeup. 

The takeover might bring Gareth Southgate to Goodison Park, with reports suggesting Friedkin is considering the former England manager to replace Sean Dyche, who has overseen a dismal start to the season with Everton currently languishing in the relegation zone.

Dyche’s team lost their first two matches against Brighton (3-0) and Tottenham Hotspur (4-0) before twice losing 2-0 leads to suffer 3-2 defeats in back-to-back Premier League matches against Bournemouth and Aston Villa. 

The Toffees notched their first point this term out against Leicester City, ending a four-match losing start this term. 

Nevertheless, reports continue to swirl about the incumbent’s future on Merseyside, with Everton winless after five matches and second-bottom in the standings. 

Dyche’s side host Crystal Palace on Saturday, seeking success for the first time in 2024-25.
