Everton supporters were left buzzing this week after David Moyes made a candid admission regarding the club’s late-season ambitions. With the Premier League reaching its business end in April 2026, the Scotsman has shifted the narrative from mere survival to a potential return to the continental stage.
​When questioned about the possibility of European nights returning to the blue half of Merseyside, Moyes initially played it cool, suggesting a top-ten finish would represent a “really good season.” However, the veteran manager quickly pivoted, admitting he doesn’t want to “step away” from the opportunity that has presented itself. His comments have caught many off guard, particularly given the squad constraints and the club’s recent history of battling at the wrong end of the table.
​The Realistic Path to Europe
​Currently sitting in the middle of a congested pack—battling the likes of Brentford, Chelsea, and Bournemouth—Everton find themselves within striking distance of the European places. While the Champions League remains a mathematical long shot, Moyes was quick to emphasize that the Europa League and the Europa Conference League are prestigious competitions that the club should be hungry to enter.
​”I’d rather be positive and try to make the players know that is what I want. We’re having a go at Europe,” Moyes stated, acknowledging that while some might laugh at the ambition, he refuses to be negative.
