Kenwright: We are talking to some first rate Directors of Football
Everton chairman Bill Kenwright has revealed that the club are looking to appoint a director of football to help Ronald Koeman in his role as manager.
Kenwright says that the club has spoken to a number of first rate people in their search and feels that if they get it right it will be a massive plus.
“It’s something I wasn’t used to so I didn’t really know a lot about it because there seemed to be a lot of cross-fertilisation with my role,” he said. “But it is modern football and if you get the right one it is a big plus.
“We are talking to various first rate people who have been mentioned. What I have picked up in the last four weeks is it is an important role and, if done right, it can add to a football club. Ronald has worked with a lot of director of footballs and will embrace that as well as the Everton way.
