"I've spoken to a lot of players who have been here for many years, and since the summer when I signed, I've seen the fans, the fanbase and the atmosphere. It is a club that's built for Europe. It's about us now taking that responsibility and saying: the stepping stones are there, it's about taking it on."
"It would mean an awful lot [qualifying for Europe]. Everton haven't competed in European football since 2017-18, and Dewsbury-Hall believes the club possesses the infrastructure and support necessary to establish itself as a regular European competitor moving forward."
Everton face Chelsea in a Premier League match with significant European qualification implications. Currently sitting eighth, a victory would move Everton into seventh place and within two points of sixth-placed Chelsea. European qualification is guaranteed for top-seven finishers, though eighth place may also suffice depending on FA Cup outcomes. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who transferred from Chelsea to Everton last year, emphasizes the club's potential for European football and the responsibility players must embrace. Everton recently lost to Arsenal despite creating chances, while Chelsea suffer from three consecutive defeats, including heavy Champions League losses to PSG. Dewsbury-Hall leads Everton's squad with nine goal involvements this season.
