Everton manager David Moyes attended the Nordoff Robbins' Legends of Football 2026 awards event in London, joining a host of football and music stars at the annual ceremony.

With 11 of his first-team squad away on international duty, Moyes spent Monday night at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House hotel in London's Mayfair district, overlooking Hyde Park. The 63-year-old was photographed sitting alongside former Everton manager Sam Allardyce and Roy Hodgson, while Sean Dyche, Moyes' predecessor as Blues boss before his return for a second stint at Goodison Park, posed alongside his daughter Alicia.
