Moyes set for contract negotiations

The Toffees will play in the UEFA Cup once again next season after securing fifth place in the Barclays Premier League with a 3-1 victory against Newcastle and Moyes has already turned his attention to building on the solid foundations he has put in place.
The Scotsman said: "I am totally relaxed about the situation. I am due for some talks maybe in a few days, maybe next week. Every manager tries to get as much money as he can, but this board have always backed me and I don't expect that to change."
He added: "I am more interested now in preparing for next season, getting the lads back in July and work and I go into that campaign with great optimism."
"I wanted to win, I wanted 65 points. In many other seasons, that would have got us into the Champions League. When we did achieve that a couple of years ago, we did it with 61 points.
"This is one of my most pleasing seasons at the club, but I always prefer to think that the most pleasing season is still to come."
The Everton boss also confirmed that Thomas Gravesen and Stefan Wessels will leave the club this summer.
Midfielder Gravesen has struggled with injuries this season and has started only three games during his loan spell from Celtic.
Wessels, signed from Cologne last summer on a one-year deal, will also depart having made seven appearances as Tim Howard's understudy.
