Everton linked with move for Porto chief

Everton are reportedly weighing up a move to land Sergio Conceicao from FC Porto this summer, as they ponder options to replace Sam Allardyce.

The Toffees appointed Allardyce midway through the season and although he has led them to what will be a top-half finish in the Premier League, it’s thought that the top brass at the club are eyeing replacements.

Everton have already been linked with a number of managers, including Paulo Fonseca and Marco Silva. However, the latest name to be touted is Conceicao, as per a report from ESPN.

The 43-year-old has impressed in his maiden season with Porto and it seems his performance in Portugal has piqued the interest of chiefs at Everton.

Conceicao led Porto to their first Liga NOS title in the last five years and is well-respected by the club’s supporters. It’s believed that the promising boss is happy at his club, but a move to Everton and the Premier League could come as an attractive proposition.
