As he prepared to seal a UEFA Cup place in tomorrow's game against Newcastle at Goodison Park, Moyes said it would not be his farewell appearance but negotiations over a new contract had been on hold for two months and he had no idea about his summer transfer budget.

Moyes: waiting to know

The Everton manager said: 'My job is here and I am under contract for another year. I will be here next season unless I am told differently but beyond that I don't know.

'It may seem strange to be preparing for another season with just one year on your contract but maybe that is a question for the chairman.

'We had some discussions two months ago but there has been nothing since. I haven't actually been offered a new contract and nothing has been mentioned about holding more talks.'

Moyes has drawn up a list of transfer targets, headed by Heerenveen's United States midfielder Michael Bradley, but he is in the dark about his budget.

'I told the club three months ago what I was looking for but I don't know when I'll get an answer,' he said. 'I don't know whether I'll be shopping at Harrods or the bargain basement.'

The uncertainty extends to Moyes' appointing a successor to Alan Irvine as assistant manager. 'I can't really bring someone in until my own situation is sorted out,' he said.
