BREAKING: Everton sack manager Frank Lampard

Everton manager Frank Lampard has been sacked by the club following their poor run of results.

The Toffees, who were defeated by West Ham at the weekend, sit in 19th place on the Premier League table - winning only three games in 20 league outings.

The former Chelsea star was appointed Everton boss in January 2022 and managed to keep the Merseyside club afloat last season but, after a 10-game winless run in all competitions, Lampard has departed his position.

Sean Dyche, Duncan Ferguson and Marco Bielsa are among the names linked with the now-vacant role.
