Dyche’s exit follows a string of poor performances, leaving Everton in a precarious position in the Premier League. The Toffees are 16th in the table, just one point above the relegation zone, after a dismal 1-0 defeat to Bournemouth last Saturday.
The team failed to register a single shot on target in that match and has managed just three wins in 19 league games this season.
