Everton have sacked manager Frank Lampard after less than a year in charge at Goodison Park.
Defeat at fellow strugglers West Ham United on Saturday was Everton's ninth loss in 12 Premier League games.
They are second from bottom of the table with 15 points from 20 matches, above Southampton on goal difference.
Former England midfielder Lampard, 44, replaced Rafael Benitez in January 2022 with the team 16th in the table and helped Everton avoid relegation.

- Fulham 0-1 Tottenham: Kane levels Greaves as Tottenham's joint all-time top scorer.
- EFL Cup build-up: Newcastle travel to Southampton at 20:00 GMT.

Good morning
A huge night for Tottenham.
A difficult night for Frank Lampard.
The start of something new for Everton.
Lot's to get through today, so it is good to have you with us. Tottenham closed the gap on the top four to just three points as Harry Kane made history at Fulham on Monday night.
In scoring the only goal, the striker levelled the great Jimmy Greaves' all-time record tally of 266.
But we'll start with Everton's decision to sack Lampard and all the fall out from it. What next? The agenda is coming up right after the papers, which unsurprisingly are dominated by the key storylines.
