As Southampton’s Dutch manager looks set for a £7m-a-year move to Goodison Park, here are the best Ronald Koeman to Everton jokes.
Despite arriving upon something of a player exodus two summers ago, Koeman impressed hugely to finish 7th in his debut season at St Mary’s and qualified for the Europa League with a 6th place finish this time around.
He would be replacing Roberto Martínez, who was sacked having guided the Toffees to back-to-back bottom half finishes in the Premier League.
Saints may be reluctant to lose their man, but wheels are evidently in motion and Ronald Koeman to Everton jokes are doing the rounds:
Saints fans to Koeman right now. pic.twitter.com/13OWRVbgWM

Koeman is leaving Southampton because they're hosting a Sidemen vs YouTube game today. That's the real reason. Blokes embarrassed.

If Koeman wanted to go to a bigger club, he should have taken Villa job……https://t.co/fQ3qiVjBWY

I'm philosophical about Koeman but I'll be pissed off if he's replaced by Eddie Howe's gilet, his 4-4-2 and his racist eyes. #saintsfc
