Sky Sports are also reporting that Everton will appoint Carlo Ancelotti as their new head coach on a four-and-a-half-year deal. The Italian coach is one of the most decorated bosses of his generation. With the highlight of his coaching career winning the Champions League on three occasions.
The 60-year-old also has experience of managing in the Premier League, having previously managed Chelsea. Ironically, his last game as Blues boss was at Everton’s Goodison Park.
Everton have been looking for a new boss since the sacking of former boss Marco Silva just under two weeks ago. The likes of David Moyes and former Porto boss Vitor Pereira had also been linked with the vacant position.
Ambitious Toffees majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri is reportedly willing to back the experienced Italian boss in the transfer market over the next few windows starting in January.
