Everton Under-23s manager David Unsworth has been placed in temporary charge of the first team following Ronald Koeman’s sacking.
The former Toffees defender, who also stepped into the breach when Roberto Martinez was fired in May 2016, will oversee preparations for Wednesday’s Carabao Cup tie against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

“Everton Football Club can confirm that David Unsworth will take temporary charge of the Everton first team, commencing with tomorrow night’s Carabao Cup tie at Stamford Bridge,” said an Everton statement.
