Everton are on the search for a new manager after they sacked Rafael Benitez with the Toffees just six points above the relegation zone.
Latest Everton Manager Odds as Toffees Look For Rafael Benitez Replacement
Benitez Sacked By Everton
Benitez has been sacked by Everton after a disappointing turn of form in Merseyside.
The Toffees have won just one of their last ten Premier League fixtures, losing seven and drawing twice. They have also failed to beat any of the recently-promoted teams this season.
Everton chiefs have, therefore, taken swift action to stop any further slipping down the Premier League table towards the drop-zone.
In a statement, the club said: “Everton Football Club can confirm the departure of Rafael Benitez as First Team manager.
“Benitez, who joined Everton in June 2021, has left the club with immediate effect.
“An update on a permanent replacement will be made in due course.”
