DAVID UNSWORTH NOW EVERTON CARETAKER


Everton under-23 manager David Unsworth will take temporary charge of the senior team following the sacking of Dutchman Ronald Koeman, the club announced on Tuesday.

The former Everton defender's first task will be to prepare the team for their League Cup clash against Premier League champions Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday.

"Everton can confirm David Unsworth will take temporary charge of the Everton first team, commencing with tomorrow night's Carabao Cup tie," the club said on their official Twitter handle.

The 44-year-old Unsworth made 314 appearances for the club in two stints and has scored 40 goals. He returned in a coaching capacity in 2013.

Everton sacked Koeman on Monday after they dropped into the Premier League relegation zone following Sunday's humiliating 5-2 home defeat by Arsenal.

The Dutchman took over 16 months ago and spent a significant amount of money overhauling the squad in the last transfer window, but Everton have won two out of nine league games in their worst start to a season since 2005-06.

The Latest on Catalonia's plans to hold a referendum Sunday on breaking away from Spain (all times local) 8 p.m. Ruben Satinya wasn't sure he would vote in favor of independence for Catalonia in Sunday's disputed referendum, but the Spanish government's effort to prevent the poll from taking place has convinced him to vote in favor of a break with Spain.
