SKY SPORTS: Abel Ferreira has been selected as the replacement for Everton manager Sean Dyche, who resigned today.

It seems possible that Everton manager Sean Dyche will not be able to hold onto his position for much longer.

Despite suffering two different point deductions,

Dyche ended the 2023–24 season with a great deal of credit after avoiding relegation.

If club officials had not violated the financial laws,

the Toffees would have just ended one point outside of the top half of the Premier League standings.

Though the fan base was optimistic going into the season,

that has since been destroyed following three terrible games.

Though the fan base was optimistic going into the season,

that has since been destroyed following three terrible games.

Apart from losing 3-0 and 4-0 to Tottenham Hotspur and Brighton & Hove Albion,

respectively, Everton also lost 3-2 to Bournemouth,

even though they were ahead 2-0 going into the 87th minute.

Dyche battling for his position

He could very well lose his job in the dugout if Everton’s performance in their games following the international break is subpar.

However, The Sun claims that even if potential new owner John Textor takes the club over successfully,

things might still alter.

According to the source, if Abel Ferreira, the head coach of Palmeiras,

showed up at Goodison Park, the Lyon boss would go after him.

Ferreira’s accomplishments at the Brazilian powerhouse,

including two league titles and the Copa Libertadores,

are said to have impressed Textor.

Since his arrival in October 2020, Ferreira has won 177 games out of 309 in all competitions,

lost 56 and given up just 245 goals.

There are less than 18 months left on the 45-year-old’s contract.

Prior to heading to South America, he held positions at PAOK and Braga.

Possible source of difficulty

At the moment, Palmeiras, who are ironically also owned by Textor,

are three points behind leaders Botafogo in the race for a third straight championship.

Ferreira might insist on finishing the season with Palmeiras at the very least,

especially with 13 games left in the schedule.

Everton faces pressure to bounce back from their next two Premier League away games against Aston Villa and Leicester City,

respectively.
