"Sean Dyche denies speculation about the Leicester job and discusses his current status as a jobless coach"
Sean Dyche, the former Everton manager, left the club in January after almost two years in charge. Since then, he has been enjoying his time off, spending time with his family and keeping up with the football world, particularly his son Max's career.
Max Dyche, Sean's son, has made 53 first-team appearances for League One side Northampton Town, the club where Sean's management career began. Having a son in the game allows Sean to keep track of the goings on in the EFL during his time away from management.
Dyche's last gap in his managerial career lasted nine months between leaving Burnley in April 2022 and arriving at Everton the following January. During this time, he was reportedly approached by Leicester City, but he rubbished the suggestion he was ever close to taking charge of the Foxes.
Sean Dyche is currently without a managerial position, but he remains a figure of interest for potential future opportunities. Reports suggest he turned down at least one job offer since leaving Everton, indicating he is selective about his next role. As of late July and early August 2025, he has been involved in interviews and punditry but has not committed to a new managerial job.
No confirmed appointment or imminent return to management has been announced yet. During his time at Everton, Dyche was supported by long-time backroom staff Ian Woan, Steve Stone, Mark Howard, and Billy Mercer. All four left the club immediately after he was dismissed as manager earlier this year.
David Moyes, Dyche's replacement at Everton, guided the club to Premier League survival in the second half of the season. Max Dyche's Northampton Town, on the other hand, will begin their campaign away to Wigan on Saturday before a Carabao Cup clash with Southampton in midweek.
In the meantime, Dyche has been entertaining talkSPORT listeners alongside friend and actor Jonny Owen. He has also been spotted at events like Royal Ascot and seen bands like Kasabian and Oasis, demonstrating that he is making the most of his break from football.
As the football season kicks off, fans and pundits alike eagerly await news of Sean Dyche's next move. For now, he remains a free agent manager, but with his extensive experience and keen eye for talent, it won't be long before he returns to the dugout.
