Everton have signed David Moyes as their manager, the Premier League club said on Saturday.

Moyes, who previously managed Everton from 2002 to 2013, returns to the club after Sean Dyche was sacked on Saturday.

"It’s great to be back! I enjoyed 11 wonderful and successful years at Everton and didn’t hesitate when I was offered the opportunity to rejoin," Moyes said in a statement.
