Incoming Everton owner Dan Friedkin is being assisted by a ‘Tarantino esque figure’ as he looks for a new manager at Roma.
That’s according to Corriere della Sera, who provide the latest information on what has fast become a major issue for the incoming Everton owners.
They chose to sack Ivan Juric last week following a 5-1 defeat to Fiorentina that continued a negative sequence of results for the coach who was brought in as Daniele de Rossi’s replacement earlier this year.
They’re now assessing who should be the next in line and the newspaper says Dan, alongside son Ryan, will be ‘slow in choosing the new coach’.
Dan is currently in London doing a casting, in the style of the movies, despite it being more ‘logical’ for an immediate replacement to be named given where Roma are in the table and the upcoming clashes against Napoli, Tottenham and then Atalanta.
Any decision Everton’s future owners make will be made with help from Ed Shiple, a ‘Tarantino-esque figure’ who ‘solves problems’ for the group. He is an expert in human relations but with no sports knowledge.
His role at Roma is to work on the new stadium, relationships with the fans and the ‘team’ in the background of managers and workers. He is currently finalising a report on the current situation they find themselves in.
The situation risks erasing all the good work and good will the American group have built up during their time at in charge of the Italian club.
Right now, they find themselves without a coach, without a CEO and wondering where to go next, with ‘Mister X in the shadows’ and the fans not understanding or accepting what is going on.
