Michael Vaughan is adamant that Everton will appoint Burnley manager Sean Dyche after the Toffees waved goodbye to Ronald Koeman following a disappointing start to the 2017-18 season.

Dyche, 46, is currently the favourite to take over at Goodison Park after Koeman was dismissed with Everton lying in 18th place in the Premier League and unlikely to qualify from the Europa League group stages.

Former England cricket captain Vaughan, who is a well-known Sheffield Wednesday fan, claimed on his personal Twitter account that Dyche must “surely” be given the job at Everton.

Vaughan, 42, also claimed that Dyche’s replacement at Burnley would be Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder, who continues to surpass expectation by guiding the Blades to a lofty third in the Championship table.

Former Watford manager Dyche’s reputation in English football continues to increase as he moulds Burnley into an established, hard-to-beat Premier League side.
