Seamus Coleman's three options when he retires as he rules out one area of work
Seamus Coleman says he has three options when he finally hangs up his boots - but there is one job that he has no intention of doing. Coleman, who turns 37 in October, still has plenty of miles in his legs, having missed most of the past two seasons through injury. He recently signed a new one-year contract with Everton, and is closing in on 17 years with the Premier League side, as they prepare for a new post-Goodison Park era at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. But thoughts are already turning to when he finally hangs up his boots for club and country. Coleman says he will consider three different paths, but has ruled out one. 'TV work, I don't think that would be for me,' he told the Everton website. 'I would never say never, I might… if opportunities arise. But not TV work. 'Management, coaching, or disappear back to Ireland. It's been those. I'm either going to be a coach, a manager, or go back to Ireland and you'll never hear from me again. I'm not sure.' Before he has to make that decision, however, Coleman has plenty to do both at club and international level. Heimir Hallgrímsson will be eager to include the experienced campaigner in his plans for the World Cup qualifiers, which kick off in September. And Everton boss David Moyes will rely on his experience on the pitch, at the training ground and behind the scenes at the Merseyside outfit. Then there is the prospect of working with another international pal at club level, with goalkeeper Mark Travers set for his first campaign with the Toffees. 'First and foremost he's a great lad, very respectful, very good around the place,' said Coleman about the Kildareman. 'But a really good goalkeeper as well. I had him with Ireland and he pulls off some amazing saves. I think he'll be good to add to the goalkeeping unit. 'I know we are blessed with Jordan, he has been incredible for us over the last couple of years, and Mark will be here to support him and push him along the way. He'll be very well accepted here.'

David Moyes makes brutal admission about Everton ahead of the new season as they fall to a third straight loss in Chicago
Everton are 'not ready' for the new season, according to manager David Moyes after seeing the Toffees fall to a third-straight defeat on pre-season in Chicago. The Scot, who made an emotional return to the club in January following spells with the likes of Manchester United, West Ham and Sunderland, criticised his team's 'poor' attacking play and individual mistakes following their 2-1 defeat by the Hammers on Wednesday night. That loss followed a 3-0 thumping by Bournemouth last Sunday in the first of their Premier League Summer Series clashes, while the Toffees have also tasted defeat against Blackburn and drawn with Accrington Stanley this summer. 'We're not ready to perform well enough in this tournament. We're not ready to start the Premier League season,' said Moyes. 'I'm not overly concerned [by the results] because I don't have the players which I need and what I want. 'And obviously, we're up against it right from the start. We knew before we came [to the US] we were going to be really up against it. So, it was never going to be us coming here and winning [games]. 'I think our attacking play at the moment has been really poor. I think we've not created enough chances anywhere. 'I think the way we're playing in that area of the pitch at the moment has been really below par. But we've made individual mistakes which has shown us up for that as well. 'It stood out tonight, some goalkeeping mistakes. At the weekend we made a couple of mistakes against Bournemouth.' Moyes faces another of his former sides on Sunday as Everton take on United in Atlanta. The 62-year-old admitted that Everton are running out of time to strengthen the squad. The club have made four signings so far in the window but Moyes revealed that he wants another six players to come through the door. 'There's a bigger turnover of players now at clubs. They used to say, "Hey, let's sign maybe three or maybe four players tops every season".' 'But because of the way the bigger squads and maybe boys who not getting a game, they want to go, you find that there's a bigger revolving door of players. So a lot of clubs will be signing quite big numbers, which they are now, more than what was done in the past if you look at it. 'We wanted to have the players in a lot sooner, especially coming here [to the US], I knew we were going to be incredibly short.' Everton begin their Premier League campaign with a trip to newly promoted Leeds United at Elland Road on August 18.

David Moyes concerns speak volumes as Everton transfer frustrations come to light
Everton have signed four players so far this summer, with Mark Travers, Carlos Alcaraz, Thierno Barry and Adam Aznou joining the club, but manager David Moyes has been left frustrated David Moyes has revealed his frustration at Everton's failure to get deals over the line in this summer's transfer window. The Toffees have signed four players - goalkeeper Mark Travers, midfielder Carlos Alcaraz, striker Thierno Barry and young defender Adam Aznou. But Moyes reckons he needs two or three more signings before the window closes and has admitted it is a battle to convince players to come to Everton. 'We all know we're needing a lot of new players,' said Moyes. 'Everton's such a big club, with great traditions, we've looked at what it's stood for over the years, and the new stadium's an exciting new move for us. 'But then when you have another thought and you think again about it, we've been in or around the relegation positions for the last five years, so when you look at it that way maybe there's been reasons for it. 'The fact of the matter is we've got to rebuild that, we've got to rebuild trust in people who should come to Everton and show them that the club's going in the right direction and we've got a new future now. 'We're all desperate to give the supporters something again, because we've had a lot of disappointments. Last year we finished really strongly and I know the fans are in huge numbers here in Chicago and support so many events from our side of things. 'So let's hope we can pull it together for them and get them a team to be proud of by the start of the season.' Everton have been linked with a move for Jack Grealish, who appears to have no future at the Etihad after he was limited to just seven Premier League starts last season. Grealish was left out of Manchester City's squad for the Club World Cup this summer, with manager Pep Guardiola stating: 'He had a conversation with the club and [we] decided [what was for] the best. 'Jack is an exceptional player. The only reason why he didn't play last season is of course my decision. We decide that he has to play. The club was honest, he was honest. 'Incredible love and respect [for him] and we decide the best is to stay [behind] and have a place [at home] that he can feel like he can come back to be the player like he was in the year of the treble or all his career in Aston Villa. 'Without him it would have been more difficult in the year of the treble [2022-2023]. The fact is in the last two seasons he didn't play much minutes. He has to come back to play and have the butterflies in his stomach that he can play every three days and show again the quality he has.'

Official: Adam Aznou signs with Everton until 2029
The 19-year-old Moroccan left-back leaves Bayern Munich and signs a four-year deal with the Toffees. Official: Adam Aznou signs with Everton until 2029 / Credit photo : @evertonfc Adam Aznou has officially joined Everton FC on Tuesday, July 29, 2025. The Moroccan left-back departs Bayern Munich to move to the English club, where he has penned a four-year contract. The young Moroccan full-back is embarking on a new chapter in his career in the Premier League. After turning professional with Bayern Munich in Germany a year ago, Adam Aznou is now heading for England's top flight. The Toffees have just confirmed the arrival of the defender, who was developed at FC Barcelona and then at the Bavarian club. "Everton have completed the transfer of left-back Adam Aznou from Bayern Munich for an undisclosed fee. The 19-year-old defender has signed a four-year contract with the Blues until the end of June 2029," announced the English club. Negotiations between the two clubs accelerated in recent days. Everton managed to convince Bayern Munich to accept an offer of €11 million to secure the services of the young defender. This amount allows the German champions to make a significant profit on a player they acquired on a free transfer from Barça.
