Everton likely to make approach for Burnley manager Sean Dyche in next 24 hours

Everton are interested in Sean Dyche becoming their new manager and are likely to make an approach for the Burnley boss in the next 24 hours, say Sky sources.

Ronald Koeman was dismissed from his post last Monday after Everton fell to a 5-2 defeat to Arsenal, leaving them in the Premier League relegation zone.

Following last week's sacking, Everton U23 manager David Unsworth has taken the reigns at Goodison Park on an interim basis and has expressed his interest in taking over from Koeman.
 Other managers including Sam Allardyce have also shown interest in the Everton job, but Sky Sports News understands the club want to make Dyche their next manager.

When asked about the vacant managerial role at Goodison Park after his side's 1-0 victory over Newcastle on Monday night Dyche remained tight-lipped on his future.
"I just keep getting on with my job, simple as that," Dyche told Sky Sports, when asked what he would do if a call came in from Everton.
"We just keep getting on with it. That's my focus and my team's focus. We have to do planning of course, but generally we take each game as it comes, we work on that, then we process the information, debrief it and we move forward again and keep that clarity of thought. That's how we keep going."
Since joining Burnley in 2012, Dyche has experienced great success at Turf Moor, helping guide the club to two Premier League promotions.He is currently enjoying his best season with the Clarets - after 10 games they have 16 points and sit in seventh in the Premier League after a string of impressive results, including an away win against last year's champions Chelsea on the opening day of the season.
