Everton have parted company with manager Sam Allardyce who spent just six months in charge of the Merseyside club. Allardyce was brought into the club to take over from Ronald Koeman who had a disastrous spell with the Toffees after a summer of big spending.
Allardyce signed through to the end of next season but the former England manager took a lot of heavy criticism for the style of play that Everton adopted under him. So now once again Everton are on the hunt for a new manager and punters can sink their teeth into the next Everton manager betting market.
An early favourite on the list of names to succeed Allardyce at Goodison Park is Marco Silva who is the 4/7 favourite at Ladbrokes* (Betting Odds taken at 7:26 p.m. on May 16th, 2018). The former Hull and Watford manager appeared to get wrapped up things with Everton this season which may have cost him his job at Vicarage Road. When Ronald Koeman was sacked by Everton during the season, Everton owner Farhad Moshiri clearly wanted to get Silva into the club.
As speculation grew about Everton’s interest in Silva, Watford’s form dipped and the Portuguese subsequently got the sack from Vicarage Road. It was too late for the Toffees though who had already hired Allardyce. So will Everton get their man in the summer?
The nearest option to him in terms of price is Paulo Fonseca who has also been linked as an early front-runner for the vacant West Ham job after David Moyes parted ways with the club. Fonseca has had successful spells at FC Braga and Shakhtar Donetsk but has no managerial experience in any of Europe’s top five leagues. Incidentally, former Everton boss David Moyes is trading as a 6/1 odds option* (Betting Odds taken at 7:26 p.m. on May 16th, 2018) in the market.
Other names who have come up early they include former Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri and former Manchester United manager, Louis van Gaal.
