It's starting to hot up for Everton and Dyche
- Published
Sean Dyche entered the news conference at Everton's Finch Farm training ground and immediately grumbled at how hot it was in the room.
We haven't had the best of summers weather wise, but the Toffees boss is certainly feeling the heat and that will be cranked up even more if they lose their Premier League opener against Brighton on Saturday.
Despite wiping the sweat off his brow and looking a little flush in the face, the manager spoke about the "calmness" felt around the club this summer and the excellent transfer business they have managed to achieve.
But shortly after the assembled media had left the building, news broke that Blues owner Farhad Moshiri had entered into an exclusivity agreement with John Textor as he aims to sell the club.
Dyche had been asked about the takeover situation and said he had his "fingers crossed" that a resolution could be found, but this brings more uncertainty before the start has begun.
Textor would need to sell his 45% stake in Crystal Palace before being able to complete a purchase of Everton, so how long will that take?
These things are never straightforward, as the fans know, and this one could rumble on for a while.
