Sean Dyche is under pressure at Everton.
The Toffees have just one point on the board after yesterday’s 1-1 draw against Leicester City.
Suffering four defeats in his first five Premier League games of the season, Dyche, 53, is under mounting pressure to turn it around quickly.
And while the Everton board have so far refused to give a knee-jerk reaction to the Toffees’ poor run of results, which have included back-to-back 3-2 defeats from 2-0 winning positions, there is speculation Dyche could be the first manager of the season to be sacked.
Graham Potter ‘very interested’ in replacing Sean Dyche at Everton
Should that scenario play out, according to a recent report from Football Insider, one of the candidates to replace the former Burnley boss is Graham Potter.
The 49-year-old manager, previously of Brighton, has not been in work since he left his role as Chelsea boss last year. However, ready to return to the dugout, Potter is “very much interested” in replacing Dyche at Goodison Park.
Failure to improve Everton’s league position, which sees them rock-bottom of the table, could result in Dyche being let go, in which case, Potter would almost certainly emerge as a top contender to take over.
During his three years at Brighton, Potter, who was in charge for 134 matches, in all competitions, averaged 1.28 points per game.
