Sandro Ramirez has not featured once since David Unsworth took temporary charge of Everton.

Everton's interim manager David Unsworth looks on during the English League Cup fourth round football match between Chelsea and Everton at Stamford Bridge in London on October 25, 2017.

By hook or by crook, it is looking increasingly likely that David Unsworth will be patrolling the Goodison Park touchline for the foreseeable future.

As reported by The Mirror, Sam Allardyce has now ruled himself out of contention to take over at Everton after The Toffees waited too long to make an approach. And their hopes of nabbing Marco Silva from Watford appear to have suffered a fatal blow with The Hornets issuing a firm ‘hands off’ warning.

Links with Burnley boss Sean Dyche have disappeared recently while Carlo Ancelotti, Thomas Tuchel and Diego Simeone looked like pipe dreams at best.

Though many Everton fans, not to mention the players, would appear to be happy with the prospect of the popular Unsworth getting the job full time.

There is one Toffees player, however, who may be praying that there is a dramatic twist in the tale. After all, if Unsworth is appointed as Ronald Koeman’s successor, Sandro Ramirez’s chances of saving his Premier League career will surely be hanging by a thread.

Arriving at Everton amid huge expectations and a low price-tag, per The Independent, the £5.1 million former Malaga man has failed miserably to make an impact in English football.

Five Premier League appearances have yielded no goals and, despite The Toffees’ lack of a consistent centre-forward, Sandro has been omitted from all of Unsworth’s matchday squads since Koeman’s sacking last month.

And Estadio Deportivo reported on Tuesday that the former Barcelona youngster could return to Spain as early as January with Sevilla and Valencia keen.

If Unsworth gets the job, Sandro’s short-lived spell on Merseyside could be over already.
