David Moyes 'furious' as Everton's January transfer plan revealed

Moyes is frustrated that Everton's new owners The Friedkin Group plan no spending in January, only free transfers and loans, prioritizing Roma over squad reinforcements.

David Moyes is reportedly furious with Everton's ownership after learning that The Friedkin Group, who are in the process of acquiring the club, have no plans to invest in January transfers. The new owners have made it clear their priority is Serie A side Roma, and will only consider free transfers or loan signings even if Everton faces a relegation battle.

Despite finishing the summer window without major additions, Everton sit 11th in the Premier League, four points clear of the drop zone. However, Moyes believes the squad is threadbare and vulnerable to relegation if key players are injured. He is particularly concerned about the lack of backup for striker Thierno Barry and weaknesses in the full-back positions.

While Moyes has no desire to leave and has rejected interest from Celtic, there are concerns he could depart if new ownership changes hands. Amanda Staveley is believed to be interested in purchasing the club, and reports suggest new owners would likely replace Moyes.
