Everton have confirmed the appointment of Sean Dyche as the club's new manager following the dismissal of Frank Lampard last week.
The Toffees parted ways with Lampard after a poor run of form left them second from bottom of the Premier League, with no wins in their last 10 games in all competitions. Former Leeds United head coach Marcelo Bielsa was heavily linked with the Merseyside club as the 67-year-old looked to return to a managerial role for the first time following his Elland Road exit in February last year.
Bielsa is still a firm fan favourite at Leeds and supporters are likely to be pleased that he will not be taking over a relegation rival at such a crucial point of the season. The Argentine went as far as flying into the UK for talks, with reports claiming that he wanted to initially take over the under-21s team until the end of the season with his staff in charge of the senior side, was rejected by the Toffees.
