Everton manager Sean Dyche has delivered his first pre-season interview, where he discussed transfer plans, the vision for the 2024/2025 season, and much more.
The Toffees had a rough 2023/2024 campaign, thanks in part to several point deductions, but Dyche’s team comfortably avoided relegation. With new owners on the way and perhaps a season with a better financial situation, Everton can start to go in the right path.
Everton have flew off to Ireland for a pre-season training camp, and Dyche has spoken with the club’s official channels about the coming season.
Everton are Trying to Adapt in the Market
The Toffees are in a better position
Dyche spoke to Everton’s official YouTube channel about the current summer transfer window, implying that the Toffees may be better positioned to enter the market…
“Players going out currently, possibly, rather than coming in. But, we’re looking to adjust that accordingly, and the right deals and the right players. There’s still challenges to go on the financial side, but we’re in a much better place than we were.”
It certainly appears to be a positive step for the club’s finances in a transfer window where Kevin Thelwell and the recruitment team will be anxious to get it right. It has been a difficult few years for the Toffees, but their performances last season demonstrated that improvement has been made on the field.
Dyche goes on to say that the club will still face obstacles in the transfer market, but the aim is to bring in players who will help the team compete…
“We are trying to adapt to the [transfer] market as best as we can, while still working within the guidelines of the situation at the Club. It’s been a challenge ever since I’ve been here and it goes on being a challenge but we’ve shown we can be very competitive with our signings and mould a team that is competitive. That still remains the key – having that competitive edge to everything we do.”
Everton have already signed three players since the transfer market opened: Jack Harrison on loan for another season, Tim Iroegbunam from Aston Villa, and Iliman Ndiaye from Marseille.
