Next Everton manager: Wolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo on Toffees shortlist - Report
Everton are believed to have contacted Nuno Espirito Santo's representatives as they search to replace outgoing boss Ronald Koeman.
Sky Sports reporter and Spanish football journalist Guillem Balague reports that an approach to Nuno has been made and super-agent Jorge Mendes is listening.
Burnley manager Sean Dyche is the overwhelming favourite to take over at Goodison Park, but Nuno's odds have been slashed from 40/1 to 14/1 this morning after a flurry of bets.
Wolves went back to the top of the Championship last night following an excellent 2-0 win at Norwich.
The Molineux men are as short as 1/4 with the bookmakers to return to the Premier League next season.
Nuno has been a revelation since his arrival and it seems unlikely Wolves will listen to offers for their manager if a formal approach is subsequently made.
The 43-year-old has previously managed Valencia and Porto before signing a three-year-deal to become Wolves manager.
Everton have endured a miserable start to the season and currently sit 18th in the table with only two wins all season.
They have struggled with a difficult fixture schedule, but last Sunday's 5-2 home defeat proved to be Ronald Koeman's last.
The Toffees also face a difficult task to progress through the group stages of the Europa League
