Everton confirm imminent Sam Allardyce deal
Everton have announced that Sam Allardyce is close to being confirmed as the club’s new manager.
The Toffees have spent over a month searching for a replacement for Ronald Koeman, who was sacked as the club’s boss on October 23, but the Merseyside outfit have revealed that they are nearing the appointment of Allardyce.
The former England and Crystal Palace manager distanced himself from the role earlier this month, but the 63-year-old will now take his place in the dugout at Goodison Park.
Sam Allardyce will be at USM Finch Farm this afternoon to finalise terms on becoming the new manager of Everton Football Club.

Unsworth has acted as caretaker boss of Everton for seven matches, but the club’s Under-23 coach has only recorded one win in all competitions.
Everton head into Wednesday’s clash with West Ham United sitting just two points above the relegation zone in the Premier League table.
