The no-nonsense gaffer started his career at Watford in 2011.
But it was a 10-year spell at Burnley where he made his name, taking charge of 425 games at Turf Moor until 2022.
Now, Dyche is hoping to return to the beautiful game with a new club over the summer.
There could be several sides looking for a new manager.

But Dyche admits his dream would be to link up with struggling Man United.
The Red Devils are in the Europa League final against Tottenham, yet their Premier League campaign has been a disaster.
They lie 16th in the table with just 10 wins in 36 outings.
And earlier in the season United sacked Erik ten Hag for Portuguese tactician Amorim.

He has since struggled to get a tune out of the club's big-money flops.
But Dyche has made it perfectly clear he would be willing to try his hand in the Old Trafford dugout should an unexpected change be made shortly.

Speaking on the Stick to Football podcast, brought to you by Sky Bet, Dyche said: '(One job I'd take?) It was always Manchester United because of the size of the club, not because it's Man U – but due to the sheer grandeur, particularly back then.
'I know they are going through a tough run at the minute, but the whole worldwide feel of it. That's a big super-powered club.'
Dyche also dished out some advice to Amorim on how to improve results while claiming he would have done better in the role.
Dyche added: 'Amorim better win some games – pretty quick. I reckon if I went there and played my way, we'd win more games.
'Just 4-4-2 – give them basic rules of principles. They have some good players. You don't have to over teach everyone.
'I'd be interested more in the longer run, if he can stick to his principals and then next season, we're all going, 'Fair play' – but, he's been there a while now so you better start bringing some wins soon.'
Dyche finished by claiming he would have given ex-England boss Gareth Southgate the job over Amorim last year.
He noted: I thought the Manchester United job fitted Gareth [Southgate] really well. Coming out of the hardship of managing your country – because it is hard managing your country.
'The fans and the media can drive [decisions] but sometimes you've got to be brave enough. Think of all the managers down the years where clubs have been brave.'

Arne Slot leaves Luis Diaz out of AC Milan friendly due to ongoing speculation

Bayern Munich are understood to have reopened dialogue with the Premier League champions, having had an initial offer of 67.5million euros (£59m) dismissed last week. Liverpool have maintained they do not want to sell the forward – who has also attracted interest from Barcelona – and the Bundesliga champions' bid was way below their own valuation of 100m euro (£87m) for an elite forward in the global market. Diaz turns 29 in January and has two years left on his current deal but has not yet had an offer of a new contract. 'In Lucho's (Diaz's) situation, there's a lot of rumours around him lately and I cannot go into that,' said Slot. 'He's training really well with us but we have decided for now not to play him yet. 'I'm used to talking to most of my players on a regular basis. I cannot comment much more about that.' Joe Gomez has departed Liverpool's pre-season tour of Asia due to injury, Arne Slot has confirmed. — Liverpool FC (@LFC) July 26, 2025 Asked whether Diaz wanted to leave, Slot added: 'That is not the person to ask, me.' Striker Darwin Nunez, whose own future appears to lie away from Anfield, and midfielder Wataru Endo missed the game with minor fitness issues. Club-record signing Florian Wirtz made his first start as a false nine, with latest signing Hugo Ekitike left out of the squad, having only arrived on Thursday after completing his arrival in a £79m deal on Wednesday. Slot played two different starting XIs in each half, with midfielder Ryan Gravenberch and left-back Kostas Tsimikas both required to fill a centre-back role after Joe Gomez returned home for treatment on an Achilles injury. 'We thought it was better to assess it back in England and for him to work on him to come back to the team, probably in more ideal circumstances for him,' added Slot, who denied Gomez's absence left him dangerously-short in the position after selling Jarrell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen. 'I don't think we have a concern at centre-back. I think Ryan (Gravenberch) showed today that he can play in that position. He did it last season as well. 'Although we all know we favour him as a number six, Wata (Endo) can play there. Joe Gomez only has a minor injury, he has been good for us last season as well. — Liverpool FC (@LFC) July 26, 2025 'We have enough options left but it's true that Jarell Quansah left and we haven't replaced him yet.' Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo scored the goals for Liverpool, who paid tribute to forward Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva after their deaths in a car crash earlier this month. Players wore shirts bearing a logo with the Portugal international's name and number and a heart, and Sir Kenny Dalglish laid a wreath in front of supporters who held up a DJ 20 mosaic.

Lauren James injury latest as England provide update on ‘scare' ahead of Euro 2025 final

England forward Lauren James is set to be available for the Euro 2025 final against Spain after recovering from an ankle injury. James was forced off at half-time during England's semi-final win over Italy but has trained in the days before the final and is set to be fit. Sarina Wiegman expects to have all 23 players available for selection, should they come through their final recovery, including James. 'We had 23 players on the pitch today and everyone came through, so if everyone recovers well then we have 23 players available for tomorrow,' Wiegman said. 'I think we have many players that can impact, and we know that (James) can have an impact too, so that will be nice.' James played a key part in England's 1-0 win over the world champions Spain at Wembley in February - the last time Spain lost a match. 'Lauren brings something slightly different,' Leah Williamson said. 'Just like the others, so obviously having that available is best-case scenario for us.' Williamson has recovered from her own ankle injury and is set to captain England in the final after missing out of the 2023 World Cup, where the Lionesses lost 1-0 to Spain in Sydney. 'I can speak for every single member of the squad when I say we will play as long as we get the green light, we would play through absolutely anything to be involved at this stage,' Williamson said. 'My ankle is great. My mum actually rolled her ankle a couple of days ago, so she's taken all the attention away from me now. But no, I had a scare. Obviously I want to be involved, and I want to be available to help the team any way they need me.' Williamson said it was 'awful' to miss out on the last World Cup and admitted she felt 'useless' watching England in the final against Spain. 'That probably bothered me the most,' Williamson said. 'Of course, I'm very happy with that,' Wiegman said when asked about Williamson's availability as captain. 'I am very happy that we have 23 players available tomorrow and yeah, Leah has a big role in the team, so it's really nice to have her on the pitch.'
