Everton want to appoint Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa if they sack beleaguered boss Marco Silva, per the Daily Mirror.

The Toffees have endured a poor run of form under Silva and are currently languishing in mid-table after defeat to Watford on Saturday.

The report claims that Bielsa could become a key target if Farhad Moshiri decides to sack the Portuguese, who Everton appointed only last summer after an acrimonious end to his time at Vicarage Road.

Bielsa is currently masterminding Leeds’ promotion push in the Championship – the club drew 1-1 with Middlesbrough on Saturday but remain within the automatic promotion places.

Toffees fans, however, are split on the prospect of bringing in Bielsa, who has never managed in the Premier League, with his appointment at Leeds marking his first foray into English football.

Indeed, some would like to see former midfielder Mikel Arteta appointed instead, while others believe it would simply add to the disorder currently seen at Goodison Park.
