3 potential new managers to replace Ronald Koeman at Everton

A trio of coaches based on three different categories

A shocking start to the 2017-18 campaign has seen Everton and Ronald Koeman part ways.

The club announced the Dutchman’s departure on Monday afternoon.

After a relatively excellent seventh place finish the previous season, the Toffees decided to spend big in a bid to push on.

The Merseyside outfit spent a huge sum bringing in a number of quality additions.

However, a suitable replacement for the outgoing Romelu Lukaku was not forthcoming. And Koeman has paid the price.

Who do the Blues turn to next? The Coral News Team give their recommendations from the current betting list.

Realistic Option: Sean Dyche – 7/4

Burnley have exceeded expectations so far this season. Sean Dyche has been a superb appointment at Turf Moor since taking the reins in 2012.

However, how much further can he realistically take a club like the Clarets? There is a ceiling for all clubs and it is arguable that Dyche has just about reached it there.

The next step for the former Watford defender is surely a club like Everton. It is an outfit on the precipice of breaking the elite – a traditionally huge club.

Optimistic Option: Manuel Pellegrini – 8/1

The former Manchester City manager is a hugely underrated coach.
