Premier League 2026-27: Fulham and Everton face new challenges

Previews for the 2026-27 Premier League season highlight significant transitions for Fulham and Everton.

Fulham enters the season following the departure of manager Marco Silva to Benfica. The club has appointed Álvaro Arbeloa, who brings connections to Real Madrid. This shift suggests a new strategy of recruiting and developing young talent, potentially establishing a pipeline from Madrid to London. Key departures include Raúl Jiménez and Harry Wilson.

Everton aims to build on their move to the Hill Dickinson Stadium. After a season that saw them fall from a potential Champions League qualification spot to a 13th-place finish, manager David Moyes faces the challenge of stabilizing the squad. The club needs to address gaps in central defense and find a successor to Séamus Coleman, while also upgrading their center-forward options.
