Sean Dyche Sent Clear Ashley Young Message As Three Major Everton Questions Emerge

Ashley Young's Future Up in the Air

After starting just one of Everton's last five Premier League games, Ashley Young's future at the club is in doubt. The 37-year-old's contract expires at the end of the season, and it is unclear whether he will be offered a new deal.

Young has been a valuable member of the Everton squad since joining from Aston Villa in 2022, but his playing time has been limited this season due to the emergence of Nathan Patterson.

Dyche's Message to Young

Speaking ahead of Everton's game against Arsenal, Dyche was asked about Young's future. The manager said that he had a clear message for the veteran defender.

"I've spoken to Ashley," Dyche said. "I've told him that he's still a valuable member of this squad. He's a leader in the dressing room, and he's always willing to help the younger players."

Three Major Everton Questions

In addition to Young's future, there are three other major questions that Everton need to answer in the coming months.

1. Who will be the club's next manager?

Dyche is currently in interim charge of Everton, but it is unclear whether he will be given the job permanently. The club is expected to appoint a new manager in the summer, and a number of potential candidates have been linked with the role.

2. Will Everton be able to avoid relegation?

Everton are currently 19th in the Premier League table, and they are in serious danger of being relegated to the Championship. The club has a difficult run of fixtures coming up, and they will need to start picking up points soon if they want to stay in the top flight.

3. Can Everton rebuild their squad?

Even if Everton avoid relegation, they will need to rebuild their squad in the summer. The club has a number of players who are out of contract, and they will need to bring in some new faces to improve the quality of the team.
