Bryan King believes Dan Friedkin may pursue Thomas Tuchel for the managerial position at Everton. The ex-Goodison scout believes the Toffees’ possible new owner should make a change in the dugout. Everton have been busy in recent weeks, sealing the acquisitions of Tim Iroegbunam and Jack Harrison and awarding other contract extensions. And King, speaking exclusively with Goodison News, is curious about Sean Dyche’s future. “Is Dyche going to remain as the manager?” King asked.
“Will the new owner want to bring in his own man?” Who is responsible for signing and approving new contracts for club players?I hope it’s Dyche, but there appears to be some question. If the new owner has any sense, he will leave things as is for the first six months to see how things proceed. However, he may be persuaded to make a change. Someone like Tuchel, perhaps he would fit into the type of manager Friedkin prefers.”
Could Everton appoint a high-profile manager like Thomas Tuchel? On paper, Dyche does not deserve to lose his job. The 53-year-old maintained Everton in the Premier League last season under difficult circumstances and deserves at least another season in charge. However, given all that is changing at the club, this may not happen. Should the Freidkin Group accomplish a takeover, they may wish to make a statement appointment to begin their reign.
Bringing on a well-known manager like Tuchel, who won the Champions League with Chelsea in 2021, might help the club do just that. While that may appear ludicrous at first, keep in mind that current Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti was in the Goodison Park dugout not long ago. As a result, Friedkin could attempt to replicate Dyche’s success by appointing someone like Tuchel to inject some positivity into Everton.
