Everton find themselves embroiled in yet another relegation battle, hovering just two places and one point above the relegation zone.

The Toffees have managed just three league wins all season against Ipswich Town, Crystal Palace and Wolves with just 15 goals scored in 19 matches.

With wins, goals and creativity in desperately short supply, Dyche is under pressure to turn things around – even more so following the takeover by the Friedkin Group.

Reports this week claim the Friedkin Group are “reviewing” his work, with Dyche himself agreeing that “it should be”.

“At the end of the day, if you are a business of this size, succession planning surely should be part of their diligence, I have no problem with that,” Dyche said.

“It should be ongoing at any football club and a part of any ‘normal’ business outside football. I never really concern myself with that – but have got to win games.”

The Friedkin Group had previously given their backing to Dyche with the former Burnley manager’s contract set to expire at the end of the current campaign.

But given Everton have the division’s lowest expected goals (xG) rate and the lowest goals per game rate of 0.79 (the lowest number for the team in the past 13 seasons) a change could be in the offing.

But who could succeed him on Merseyside?

talkSPORT BET have installed Jose Mourinho as the frontrunner at odds-on 8/11 if Dyche receives his marching orders.

Mourinho, who has previously managed Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham in the Premier League, is currently in Turkey with Fenerbahce.

The Portuguese, 61, guided Friedkin Group-owned Roma to their first major European trophy in the inaugural Europa Conference League final before being relieved of his duties after two-and-a-half years.

Former Everton boss David Moyes is next in the betting markets at 4/1.

The Scot was in charge of Everton for 11 years and is currently without a job after leaving West Ham United at the end of last season.

Further back is West Ham-linked Graham Potter at 6/1, Edin Terzic and Brentford’s Thomas Frank share a price of 12/1 with Steve Cooper available at 16/1.
