Everton boss Sørensen signs new two-year deal | OneFootball

Everton manager Brian Sørensen has signed a new two-year contract with the club which will run until summer 2026.

The Merseyside club announced the news via a post on their official club website this morning. Sørensen’s assistant Stephen Neligan has also agreed to remain at the club for the same period.

Sørensen took charge of Everton in summer 2022 and The Blue Girls were one of the eye-catching performers in last season’s Barclays Women’s Super League as they recorded a sixth-place finish. Injuries have played their part this season, however, Sørensen has continued to get the best out of his group and the club can plan for another year in the top flight in 2024/2025.

The Dane is one of the most underrated managers in the Barclays Women’s Super League and he will be hoping to enjoy more success with Everton in the next two years.

After signing his new deal, Sørensen said “I’m very happy – I really like it here. I like the Club, I like the people in the Club and I like the fans.

“There’s a plan in place, we have a good future and a good squad going forward. I think it’s important to show in the background there’s a plan.

“Results this season haven’t been the best at times – injuries to key players have been a big part of that – but we are performing extremely well and we have a good group. We want to continue working on that. The building blocks are there.

“This is one of the best groups I have worked with, for sure. They stick together and believe. In tough times, they’ve found the wins – games like West Ham away, Villa away – that really shows the character of the group.

“We’re all determined to keep moving forward with Everton.”

Everton are next in action on Friday evening when they travel to the Amex Stadium to face Brighton & Hove Albion.
