EVERTON are one of a number of clubs whose search for a new manager this summer isn’t going as smoothly as they might have hoped.

They are joined in this pickle by fellow Premier League sides Tottenham and Crystal Palace, who are yet to replace Jose Mourinho and Roy Hodgson respectively, as well as a number of clubs on the continent.

These include French Ligue 1 champions Lille whose title-winning manager Christophe Galtier has been linked with the vacancy at Everton but has long been tipped to take over at Nice.
