Everton appoint Carlo Ancelotti as manager to succeed Marco Silva
- Former Napoli manager signs four-and-a-half-year-deal
- Duncan Ferguson will be part of Italian’s coaching team
Everton have appointed Carlo Ancelotti as their manager on a four-and-a-half-year-deal in a move that will be regarded by the club as a significant coup.
Ancelotti was keen to return to the Premier League, where he has managed Chelsea, after being sacked by Napoli but he has spent most of his coaching career with clubs competing in the Champions League. He is expected to be assisted by his son, Davide, and Ancelotti has confirmed that caretaker manager Duncan Ferguson will be part of his coaching team.
