Everton have announced several changes to how the club will be run under The Friedkin Group, with Angus Kinnear arriving as CEO from Leeds and Kevin Thelwell leaving as director of football when his contract expires this summer.
Everton’s new owners intend to end the director of football model and transition to a wider “sporting leadership team”. Thelwell has been director of football since 2022 and helped steer the club through a turbulent period under Farhad Moshiri, including two points deductions and serious financial constraints, but will leave at the end of the season.
