Sean Dyche makes fresh Everton transfer admission

The Blues confirmed on Monday afternoon that Dyche had agreed to take charge of the club after Frank Lampard was sacked last week. The 51-year-old takes over a team who have won once in 12 Premier League games.

Dyche took training for the first time on Monday and will take charge of his first game against Arsenal this weekend. However, his immediate focus will be on adding to his squad ahead of Tuesday’s 11pm deadline.
