Everton Release Statement Confirming Dyche Departure
A current player is one of two people who have been placed in charge on an interim basis
Everton manager Sean Dyche.
In a statement released by the club, Dyche’s departure was confirmed, while it was also announced that former defender Leighton Baines and current club captain Seamus Coleman will take charge of first-team affairs on an interim basis.
“Everton Football Club can confirm that Sean Dyche has been relieved of his duties as Senior Men’s First Team Manager with immediate effect. Ian Woan, Steve Stone, Mark Howard and Billy Mercer have also left the Club.
“The process to appoint a new manager is under way and an update will be provided in due course. Under-18s Head Coach Leighton Baines and Club Captain Seamus Coleman will take charge of first-team affairs on an interim basis. ”
The 53-year-old had said earlier in the week that the scrutiny surrounding his future was justified after going five games without a win. In that time, the Toffees scored just once, and only Southampton have scored fewer than their total of 15 Premier League goals this season.
Meanwhile, Baines and Coleman’s first game in charge will see them play host to Peterborough United in the FA Cup on Thursday, with Ashley Young facing the prospect of playing against his son.
