Everton are reportedly looking at former Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez, who is now the Newcastle United boss.
It has been reported by the British tabloid that the Newcastle United manager is high on the list of potential successors to Ronald Koeman at Everton.
Koeman is under pressure at the moment due to the team’s disappointing start to the season.
The Toffees finished seventh in the Premier League last season and were expected to make a push for a top-six spot this campaign.
According to BBC Sport, Everton had to pay Southampton a compensation fee of £5 million for Koeman in the summer of 2016.
Meanwhile, Benitez guided Newcastle back to the Premier League from the Championship at the end of the 2016-17 campaign.
The Spaniard is one of the best managers in the world and knows the Premier League inside out.
The former Real Madrid and Chelsea boss was in charge of Liverpool from 2004 until 2010.
During his time at Anfield, Benitez guided the Reds to FA Cup and Champions League success and also made them Premier League title contenders.
