David Moyes' second spell in charge of Everton has taken on a new dimension this season, with the club pushing for a return to European football after finishing the previous campaign in mid-table.
Moyes returned to Merseyside in January 2025 and has steadily rebuilt Everton's competitiveness, with the club sitting just points behind fifth-placed Liverpool with a handful of games remaining — form that has made him one of the favourites for Manager of the Season.
His pragmatic, structure-first approach has proven effective in stabilising a club that had spent several seasons fighting relegation, and the prospect of European qualification represents a significant marker of progress under his stewardship.
With his contract due to expire at the end of next season, Everton's hierarchy are reportedly ready to offer Moyes fresh terms, keen to build on the momentum he has generated since his return.
