Everton, a relegation foe, is in negotiations with the European winning manager, which may strike Leicester a crushing blow.
Leicester City are entering the most crucial period in their season, as the next few weeks could decide their fate.
According to one financial expert, Leicester has violated the regulations, severely hurting their chances of escaping relegation to the Championship.
In addition to their PSR problems, Rud van Nistelrooy is putting a lot of effort at strengthening his first team roster during the transfer window.
The Foxes need to improve in a number of areas if they are to avoid relegation ahead of their competitors, and one club is currently making a potentially significant move that might affect them.
The top candidate to succeed Sean Dyche at Everton is David Moyes.
After two years in charge, Everton became the most recent team near the bottom of the table to fire their manager, removing Sean Dyche from his position.
After losing all five of their previous league games and only managing one goal, the Toffees made the decision to fire Dyche.
Even though he was an expert in surviving, the Englishman was fired by the league’s second-lowest scorers, who had 15 points.
However, as Everton is only three points and three spots higher in the table than Leicester, doing so could have a significant impact on the team’s season.
Position | Team | Played | Won | Drawn | Lost | For | Against | Diff | Points |
16 | Everton | 19 | 3 | 8 | 8 | 15 | 25 | -10 | 17 |
17 | Wolves | 20 | 4 | 4 | 12 | 31 | 45 | -14 | 16 |
18 | Ipswich | 20 | 3 | 7 | 10 | 20 | 35 | -15 | 16 |
19 | Leicester | 20 | 3 | 5 | 12 | 23 | 44 | -21 | 14 |
20 | Southampton | 20 | 1 | 3 | 16 | 12 | 44 | -32 | 6 |
Interestingly, David Moyes, a previous Leicester managerial target who spent 11 years at Goodison Park from 2002 to 2013, has emerged as a top candidate for the position.
