David Moyes could soon get the chance to return to Everton.
The 61-year-old Scot took charge of 518 games over 11 seasons and spent several seasons in charge at Goodison Park before leaving in 2013 to replace Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.
Moyes spent less than a year at Old Trafford and then also had brief spells as manager of Real Sociedad and Sunderland before overseeing 262 games as West Ham boss.
Everton, currently managed by Sean Dyche, were chased off the pitch by home fans on Saturday after a 0-0 draw with 10-man Brentford.
That result left the Toffees 15th in the Premier League, just three points above the relegation zone.
Dyche is still under contract until the end of the season.

However, according to The sunMoyes is being lined up as a replacement for Dyche by the club’s potential new owners.
Dan Friedkin is working to complete his takeover from current owner Farhad Moshiri.
Friedkin, who is seeking support from Everton superfans Andy Bell and George Downing, apparently sees Moyes as a top candidate to replace Dyche if the former Watford and Burnley boss is sacked.
Moyes oversaw eight top-seven finishes during his 11 full Premier League seasons in charge of Everton.
That included the 2004-05 season, when the Toffees pushed rivals Liverpool to fourth place.
Everton have only finished in the top seven twice since Moyes’ departure, finishing 16th, 17th and 15th in the last three campaigns.
Next season, Everton will leave Goodison Park and start a new era in a newly built 52,888 capacity arena at Bramley-Moore Dock.
