Sean Dyche is set to become Everton manager while Anthony Gordon is closing in on a move to Newcastle United as a turbulent week comes to a dramatic end.
Dyche is expected to be confirmed as Frank Lampard's successor in the coming days and will immediately begin work to lead Everton out of the relegation zone. It is anticipated he will be ready to take training at Finch Farm next week as the first team prepare for the home game with Arsenal.
Gordon is not expected to be among that squad, however, after talks over a move to the North East reached an advanced stage on Friday afternoon. A fee in the region of £40m is understood to have been agreed between the clubs.
