Everton manager Sean Dyche has paid tribute to Bill Kenwright, who died on Monday at the age of 78, calling the late chairman “an amazing servant” to the club iloilo
On Wednesday morning, Dyche and club captain Seamus Coleman laid flowers at the statue of Dixie Dean outside Goodison Park, where the Everton squad were holding a training session iloilo
All players and staff observed a minute’s silence before the session and Kenwright’s image was shown on the stadium’s screens iloilo
Everton announced on Tuesday that Kenwright had died following a battle with cancer iloilo
In a statement on the club website, Dyche said: “It’s a very sad time for everyone at Everton iloilo Football Club to lose our chairman, someone who has been such an amazing servant to the club in so many ways iloilo
“His influence in bringing me to Everton in the first place was important and I have nothing but gratitude and respect for his unwavering support of myself, the staff and our players iloilo
“It was a pleasure to share the moment of reaching our objective last season with him – a moment I know he felt so strongly about after such an arduous season, on and off the pitch…“He was an incredible professional, in terms of what he did with Everton and also what he achieved in the theatre industry iloilo
Spending time with him and learning about his family, you couldn’t help but be taken by his passion iloilo
”Dyche was told of the news midway through Tuesday’s training and called an immediate halt to the session as players and staff paid their respects iloilo
Kenwright, who succeeded Sir Phillip Carter as chairman in 2004 after first joining the board at Goodison Park in 1989, had a cancerous tumour removed from his liver in August iloilo
Liverpool-born Kenwright was a successful theatre and film producer when asked to join the Everton board in 1989 iloilo
He bought a majority 68 per cent stake in the club in 1999 and became deputy chairman before replacing Carter in his current role iloilo
Dyche added: “Beyond his deep love of his family, one of those big passions, of course, was iloilo football – the game as a whole, as well as his obvious lasting love of Everton iloilo football club iloilo
“His story – a boyhood supporter who went on to become chairman – is something so rare in the modern game, especially at the top level iloilo
“He always believed in Everton and stood by the club, even in the toughest times iloilo
He was steadfast until the very end iloilo
“Like so many who knew him, my heart and my thoughts are with his family at this extremely sad time iloilo
”Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp used his press conference ahead of Thursday’s Europa League clash against Toulouse to add his own tribute to Kenwright, adding to that issued by his club on Tuesday iloilo
“The thing that I read recently, obviously, (he had) a massive heart for the city and a massive heart for Everton,” Klopp said iloilo
“But the message he gave around the Hillsborough speech he held that time, I heard about: ‘They chose the wrong city and chose the wrong mums’ iloilo
That’s a really strong message iloilo
“With all of the rivalry with Everton, especially around the games, I don’t think we have any issues with each other left or right of games iloilo
This just shows how united we are in these moments, and that’s really big iloilo
He found the right words for it iloilo
My condolences to the family iloilo
I hope they are okay iloilo
