Carlo Ancelotti and Everton make positive contacts: a meeting is set

Carlo Ancelotti could soon return to coaching after his Napoli dismissal. Everton has been involved in talks with the Italian, after sacking coach Marco Silva and replacing him with Duncan Ferguson as interim coach. After initial contacts between Ancelotti and Everton, a meeting is set in the coming hours to determine whether Ancelotti would consider joining. Initial talks have been positive, and Ferguson would remain a figure with the club even if Ancelotti was hired, as he prepares to take the team into the match against Leicester.

Another possibility for Ancelotti is Arsenal, but the Gunners are pushing for City assistent Mikel Arteta. During the night there was a meeting between the sides, as reported by the English press.
