Darren Bent suggests Jose Mourinho could replace Sean Dyche as Everton manager after takeover

Everton have announced that their takeover has officially been completed.

The Toffees have now been acquired by Roundhouse Capital Holdings Limited, an entity within The Friedkin Group. Farhad Moshiri, who was the majority shareholder of Everton, has handed over the reins to the Americans.

The Friedkin Group, who already own Serie A giants AS Roma, have brought in a wave of excitement among Everton fans, who can’t wait to see what their new owners have in store for 🔜🍸them.

A new manager could be on the cards at some point in the coming months, and Darren Bent has made a very big claim.

Darren Bent suggests new Everton owners could appoint Jose Mourinho

Sean Dyche has done a decent job at Everton since ta❀king over the club.

The 53-year-old helped the Tofꦇfees avoid relegation in 𓃲the 2023/24 season, and he is on course to do it again this campaign.

Some Everton fans feel that Dyche has🔯 done the job he was brought in to do, but for the club to go to the next level, they need a different manager.

The Friedkin Group’s arrival could lead to a few big changes at Everton in the coming months, and Bent has claimed that he wouldn’t be surprised if they brought Jose Mourinho to replace Dyche.

Mourinho is one of the greatest mඣanagers🌸 of all time, and even though he isn’t the man he was a few years ago, he is still capable of great things.

Bent said on : “The only reason why 🌌I mentioned Jose is – new stadium, going into it, big owners, statement! He spoke about wanting to come back to the Premier League.

“I just wonder… They’ve had big managers beforꦚe – Ancelotti, Marco Silva, they’ve had big managers, so there’s no reason why all o✃f a sudden, like a fresh start (they could get Mourinho).

“Do you kn🐎ow what? I’m 🐽telling you now, that would not surprise me one bit.”

Jose Mourinho once slammed The Freidkin Group

Mourinho has alread🍰y worked under Th🅺e Freidkin Group.

The 61-year-old, who has won some huge trophies over the years including the Champions League with Porto and Inter Milan, spent two-and-a-half years at AS Roma, who are also owned by Everton’𒆙s new owners.

Mourinho won the UEFA Conference League withꦗ Roma, but just six months later, he was shown the doo⛦r after a difficult start to the campaign.

The Portuguese tactician, as you can imagine, was far from happy and slammed Dan Freidkin and branded his sacking as ‘unfair’.

H𝓰e said a month after his departure, as quoted by : “The European competitions are about to begin, in particular the Champions League, perhaps the world’s most important competition on the calendar.

“I won’t be there at these final stages, not because I have already been eliminated, but because I was ‘eliminated’ by ဣsomeone who knows little about football.”
