Manuel Pellegrini and Rudi Garcia have joined the long list of managers to have been linked with the vacancy at Goodison Park.

MailSport have floated the claim that Everton have made contact with intermediaries of the ex-City and West Ham boss who is currently in charge at Real Betis.

Pellegrini was unceremoniously sacked by West Ham following a dreadful spell in East London and was replaced by David Moyes.

Meanwhile, L'Equipe report that the Blues have reached out to Garcia who has just left Lyon after two seasons with the Ligue 1 club.

The 57-year-old has held a number of coaching jobs since joining Saint-à‰tienne 20 years ago, having also had spells with Dijon, Le Mans, Lille, AS Roma, and Marseille.

Sources in France continue to report that Christophe Galtier will be joining Nice after giving their owners a verbal acceptance of their offer to take him on following his decision to leave Ligue 1 champions, Lille.

There has also been a bizarre, left-field suggestion from Turkey that the Everton hierarchy have approached Fatih Terim who once managed AC Milan before being replaced by Carlo Ancelotti in 2001.
