Echo:

Everton are bracing themselves for the departure of Chief Executive Robert Elstone to Super League, 13 years after he first arrived at Goodison.

No decision has been taken yet and further talks will take place in the next 24 hours between Elstone and senior Everton officials, but it looks increasingly likely that the 54-year-old will return to his first sporting passion.

However, rumours that Everton Chairman Bill Kenwright is also poised to leave the club are incorrect.

Elstone has been heavily involved in Everton's proposed move to a new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock and his departure would come at a sensitive time for the project.

But since the Blues board was reshaped with the additions of Alexander Ryazantsev and Keith Harris in October 2016, there has been a growing belief that the club needs a new direction.

Elstone has been at Everton since 2005, having held a position on the board of the Super League side Castleford. He was also employed by the Rugby Football League and is regarded as one of the key figures in the creation of Super League in the mid-1990s.

Rugby League has remained a burning passion and when Everton entertained Apollon Limassol in their first home game in this season's Europa League group stages, Elstone chose to watch the hugely significant Super League showdown between Castleford and St Helens instead.

The lucky SOB

In the charities sector.
Edit - and education sector.

Were it matters, in the higher echelons of business etc in the UK and internationally DBB has a hell of a good reputation, and CEO at Everton would not be the highest position she would ever attain...she is on the head hunting lists of many large outfits. It will be interesting to see how this one develops. It could well be that Moshiri has his own person in mind.

Think it's more likely that Moshiri will bring in his own man/woman.
