what many supporters are already calling the best news the club could hope for, Everton are reportedly preparing a special tribute to one of the most respected managers to ever lead the club — Carlo Ancelotti.
According to reports emerging from the club’s inner circles, Everton’s board is planning to commission a bronze statue of Ancelotti outside the iconic Goodison Park, recognizing his influence during his time with the Toffees and the global respect he brought to the club.
Ancelotti, who managed Everton between 2019 and 2021, remains one of the most high-profile managers ever to sit in the Goodison dugout. His arrival stunned the football world at the time, bringing a Champions League–winning pedigree and elite experience to Merseyside. Under his leadership, Everton briefly looked like genuine contenders in the Premier League, producing exciting attacking football and restoring belief among the fans.
Moyes Leading a New Era
Meanwhile, current Everton boss David Moyes — nicknamed “The Bald Eagle” by some supporters — is now guiding the club into a new chapter. Since returning to lead the team, Moyes has been working to rebuild stability, discipline, and competitiveness within the squad.
Club insiders say the idea of honoring Ancelotti also represents Everton’s effort to reconnect with moments of pride and global recognition during a period when the club is striving to climb back among England’s elite.
A Symbol for the Fans
If approved, the statue would stand alongside other historic reminders of Everton’s rich legacy at Goodison Park. Supporters believe the tribute would symbolize the ambition the club showed when it convinced one of football’s greatest managers to take charge.
Many fans on social media have already welcomed the idea, calling it a “fitting recognition for a manager who gave Everton belief again.”
Although the project has not yet been officially confirmed by the club, discussions are reportedly ongoing. Should it move forward, the statue could become one of the most photographed landmarks outside Goodison Park, celebrating a manager whose presence once electrified the blue half of Merseyside.
For Everton supporters, the message behind the proposal is clear:
the club remembers the moments when greatness walked through its doors — and it intends to honor them.
