Everton's search for their next manager continues today with a new frontrunner emerging, according to sources.
Rafa Benitez was sacked after a poor start to the season, leaving Everton 16th in the table, with the final nail in the coffin coming after a defeat to Norwich City on Sunday.
The ECHO understands that Everton are exploring the possibility of bringing Roberto Martinez back to Goodison Park, however, a deal to bring him to the club has reportedly been stalled.
