David Moyes has set up his coaching team upon his return to Everton but there could still be space for one more.

The Everton boss has equipped his coaching staff with some familiar faces as Alan Irvine returned to Goodison Park with Everton.

Alongside him are Toffees legend Leighton Baines and Billy McKinlay, who is the new assistant.

Moyes brought Baines in after his Everton U18s stint which was highly successful and he can certainly provide something if his playing career was anything to go by.

However, Moyes might not be done yet as a new name has come into the frame.

David Moyes wants Charlie Adam on Everton team

Moyes will be hoping to improve every aspect of the club and certainly got a shock after Everton’s 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa.

The Everton boss wasn’t happy after the game with Moyes detailing he’s embarrassed by Everton’s decline.

Someone who could help that with his addition, is former Liverpool midfielder Charlie Adam.

Alan Nixon reported via his Patreon that Moyes is looking to add Adam to his coaching staff at Everton, having known the ex-Scotland international since his time at Rangers.

The journalist added that Moyes is a ‘big admirer’ of Adam who has most recently managed League Two side Fleetwood Town.

The two share a unique relationship, as Adam used to be a lodger at Moyes’ family home.

Not only does Moyes think the world of him, but another great manager praised him in his playing days, which could prove to have a massive impact on Everton now.

Sir Alex Ferguson was wowed by Charlie Adam’s set-pieces

Adam did claim that Moyes wasn’t job-searching but of course, that didn’t turn out to be true.

Now after this claim, he could be paired with his fellow Scotsman as they hope to guide Everton away from relegation.

Back in his playing days, Adam received high praise for his ability to take set pieces from none other than Sir Alex Ferguson, after Manchester United’s 3-2 victory against Blackpool in 2011.

Ferguson said in his post-match press conference: “We were deep in the mire in the first half.

“We just couldn’t handle Charlie Adam’s free-kicks and corners. We were all over the place. His corner kicks are worth £10million in themselves. The boy is an incredible striker of the ball.”

This speaks volumes now as Moyes believed Everton needed to improve set pieces and there may be no better coach than Adam to take on the reins.
