David Moyes to return as Everton manager

The Friedkin Group have found their Claudio Ranieri like they did at Roma
It appears Everton Football Club have chosen not to go through a lengthy process of replacing sacked manager Sean Dyche, and have selected former boss David Moyes to return.
The Friedkin Group, who recently completed their takeover of the Toffees after obtaining the holdings of former majority shareowner Farhad Moshiri, made a similar move at AS Roma as well with bringing in veteran manager Claudio Ranieri to stabilize the club after the sacking of fan favorite and former player Daniele De Rossi.
Multiple media sources are claiming that the deal to bring Moyes back is already done with the club working on an announcement imminently. The Scotsman managed the Blues from 2002 to 2013, qualifying for the Champions League and taking the club to an FA Cup Final in that time.
Moyes left the club in contentious manner after accepting the position at Manchester United following the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson, but was sacked after just ten months.
So far there has been no word on how long the contract with the Toffees will be, but with the Blues about to leave Goodison Park at the end of the season and ready to usher in a new era at the Bramley-Moore dock, it's somewhat fitting that they are bringing back the manager under whom they have had the most stability in recent times.
More to come.
