Sam Allardyce has been confirmed as Everton's new manager after signing an 18-month deal at Goodison Park.
The former England, Newcastle and Sunderland boss will take charge of the Toffees for the first time time in Saturday's Premier League clash at home to Huddersfield.
Allardyce said: "I've always thought Everton was a great club. It is a great club. Obviously, the club has gone through a difficult spell and hopefully I can put that behind us as quickly as possible and start looking upwards again."
