The Wolverhampton Wanderers manager is reportedly wanted by Everton.

Wolves fans celebrate during the Sky Bet Championship match between Derby County and Wolverhampton at iPro Stadium on August 12, 2017 in Derby, England.

Wolverhampton Wanderers supporters have reacted to reports linking Nuno Espirito Santo with a move to Everton.

Sky Sports pundit Guillem Balague was the first to claim that Everton had approached the Wolves manager, a rumour that was later substantiated by The Guardian.

However, both sources reported that Nuno, who has previously managed Rio Ave, Valencia and FC Porto, has indicated a desire to remain at Molineux.

The Portuguese coach has taken Wolves to the top of the Championship in three months since taking over, while Everton have slumped to 18th in the Premier League despite a £150 million summer investment, which prompted the sacking of Ronald Koeman last month.

Historically, Everton are one of the country’s biggest football clubs, but that hasn’t stopped Wolves fans (whose own club are no minnows, in fairness) to mock them over their alleged pursuit of Nuno.

How far can Nuno take Wolverhampton Wanderers?
