David Moyes appointed Everton manager for the second time

Moyes was chosen by Sir Alex as his successor at Old Trafford but failed to see out the 2013–14 season.

Moyes was sacked in April 2014 after 10 months in charge, with United finishing seventh in the table and unable to qualify for the Champions League.

After leaving United, Moyes spent a year in La Liga with Sociedad before returning to English football with Sunderland, who were relegated from the Premier League in 2016–17.

Moyes helped West Ham avoid relegation in 2017–18 during his six-month tenure.

He was close to signing a deal to replace Marco Silva at Everton in December 2019, but then owner Farhad Moshiri appointed Carlo Ancelotti.

Moyes returned to West Ham that month following the dismissal of Manuel Pellegrini and remained in charge until the end of the 2023–24 season.

In that time he led them to two top-seven finishes and won the Europa Conference League, the club’s first major trophy for 43 years.

Moyes was made an OBE in the 2025 New Year Honours.
