Everton SACK Sam Allardyce: Marco Silva wanted as replacement, Paulo Fonseca keen on job
EVERTON have sacked Sam Allardyce as manager.
Allardyce has been given the boot just six months after being named as Ronald Koeman's replacement.
The 63-year-old met with major investor Farhad Moshiri this morning in London and was informed he would not be seeing out the remainder of his 18-month contract.
The ex-Bolton, Newcastle and West Ham boss steered the Toffees away from relegation trouble but the fans never took to him.
Starsport revealed yesterday that
Allardyce would be sacked this week and the club have now confirmed his departure.
Everton said in a statement: "We have made the decision, as part of our longer-term plan, we will be appointing a new manager.
"We’d like to place on record our sincere thanks to Sam for his work with us over the last few months and wish him well for the future.”

Marco Silva, who was most recently at Watford, is the club's top pick to replace Allardyce.
They tried to get him in November but the Hornets wouldn't let him leave.
Silva has since been sacked although
Everton may still have to pay compensation to secure his services.
Shakhar Donetsk coach Paulo Fonseca is another option for the Merseyside club.

"He's been offered to several clubs, one of which is West Ham.
"He's met David Sullivan who was impressed with the converation they had when I checked with my contacts an offer hadn't been made, but Sullivan is being pressured to make a quick decision because of the other vacancies available.
"I think Everton remains a possibility there.
"Fonseca I think would prefer to move to Everton than he would West Ham United."
