Arsene Wenger wanted by Everton investor Farhad Moshiri to become club’s next manager
Toffees major shareholder Moshiri is ready to match the £8million-a-year salary that Wenger earns at Arsenal
ARSENE WENGER is wanted by Farhad Moshiri to become Everton's next manager.
Toffees major shareholder Moshiri is ready to match the £8million-a-year salary Wenger earns at Arsenal.
Sam Allardyce still has just over a year left on the 18-month deal he signed to take charge at Goodison Park in January.
But fans are unhappy with his style of play and have unfurled banners and plotted a protest that failed during their 1-1 draw with Everton.
Wenger claims he has been bombarded with job offers since announcing he is leaving Arsenal.
French champions PSG want him to become their new director of football and he has also been linked with a return to former club Monaco to replace Leonardo Jardim.
As well as interest from China, there is the possibility of helping new Japan boss Akito Nichino at this summer’s World Cup finals on a short-term appointment.
And both Fifa and Uefa have been examining the possibility of recruiting Wenger’s wealth of experience in some capacity next season.
