Everton’s “challenge” for next season in the Premier League should be to try to finish in a position to qualify for Europe, says manager David Moyes.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Scot, 61, left West Ham in the summer and returned to take charge of the Toffees for a second spell in January.<\/p>\n

Moyes also led the Hammers twice and, in his second stint as boss, they staved off relegation in 2019-20 to finish 16th, before an impressive sixth-placed finish in the following campaign.<\/p>\n

West Ham also reached the Europa League semi-finals, before notably winning the Europa Conference League in 2023 to end the club’s 43-year wait for a major trophy.<\/p>\n

With only three home games left at Goodison Park before the move to their new stadium next season, Moyes wants 15th-placed Everton to rise up to emulate his achievements at London Stadium.<\/p>\n

“It was amazing for the club and it transformed West Ham,” Moyes told BBC Radio 5 Live. “European tours for the supporters, the money that was getting brought in from the home games and we got to the semi-final of the Europa League.<\/p>\n

“I don’t really see why we should not attempt to do that here at Everton. That has to be the challenge.”<\/p>\n

However, a highly competitive top half of the table has 10th-placed Bournemouth still in with a shout of playing in Europe next season.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, Everton visit third-placed Nottingham Forest, who narrowly avoided relegation last season, but have defied the odds to put themselves in a strong position to compete in the Champions League next term.<\/p>\n

Moyes added: “We are seeing the odd team now maybe having a go such as Bournemouth and Fulham, while Brentford have tried to show over the years that they can get close to it.<\/p>\n

“I don’t see why we shouldn’t try to get ourselves into that group. If we keep playing the way we have been doing, get results, then we will give ourselves every chance.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Everton consistently finished in the top half during Moyes’ first spell in charge, going on to compete in Europe.<\/p>\n

The side lost their first match upon his return against Aston Villa in January, leaving the side teetering just one point above the drop zone.<\/p>\n

Moyes admitted returning to the club 12 years after leaving for Manchester United was a “huge risk” and there were some nights where he “found it really difficult”.<\/p>\n

But a remarkable turnaround saw Everton go on a run of nine unbeaten games and virtually assured of their safety, 15 points clear of danger with seven matches remaining.<\/p>\n

“When we came in, we were saying it would come down to the last three games and how we were going to do to get there,” said Moyes.<\/p>\n

“Every win makes you feel a little bit better. Before you know it, you are saying, ‘this is going great’.<\/p>\n

“The confidence of the players picked up as well and some of them have done remarkably well and given us every chance of staying up.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
