Fomer Ajax boss Frank De Boer would take the Everton job if he was offered it, according to his brother.
The Dutchman has been a regular name among managerial candidates since Roberto Martinez’ departure earlier in the month and according to his brother, the manager would love the chance to manage Everton.
De Boer left Ajax hours after Everton’s 3-0 loss at the hands of Sunderland after losing the Eredivisie title to PSV. Prior to this season, the Dutchman had won four successive dutch titles between 2010 and 2014 and had been courted by teams such as Liverpool and Tottenham.
Now, Everton look keen to talk to De Boer and he remains one of the most realistic choices for the next boss at Goodison Park. His knowledge of youth development ,as well as his superior win percentage in the Eredivisie, certainly makes him an attract prospect for Farhad Moshiri to consider.
Frank’s brother Ronald has expressed the Dutchman’s desire to work in the Premier League and has revealed that he hopes Everton will offer his brother the job he desires.
Frank is keen. If he has a chance to be in the Premier League, then he will want to take it. Everton are a big club and it would be a challenge, but I know for sure he would take the job if offered but that’s up to the management at Everton. He is probably on their list. He has to wait and see what the management does at the club, but I hope he will get the job. Frank is more than capable of managing at a club like Everton in the Premier League.
As much as both his brother and Frank desire the Everton job, Ronald confirmed that the Merseysider’s are yet to contact the Dutchman further substantiating reports that the Blues could look to interview a number of candidates over the next few weeks.
As a player and a manager, he has enough experience. But he hasn’t spoken to Everton.
