Carlo Ancelotti is finalising his backroom staff ahead of the
announcement that the new Everton manager will sign a four and a half year contract at the club, to begin work on Monday.
The Italian is expected to sign his contract on Friday before taking a place in the stand at Goodison Park for tomorrow’s
Premier League game against Arsenal, which is to be the last under caretaker manager Duncan Ferguson.
Ancelotti will keep Ferguson among the first team staff but will bring his own team of coaches and analysts, with whom he has worked in the past.
That will include his son Davide, who worked with him at Napoli; his long-serving fitness coach Francesco Mauri and the video analyst Simone Montanaro. There are expected to be more joining the Italian who usually brings with him a group who have, by and large, worked with Ancelotti all over Europe.
Everton have been finalising the details of Ancelotti’s contract with a presentation of their new manager likely to be at some point next week when he starts working with the squad, ahead of his first game in charge against Burnley on Boxing Day.
The agreed terms of Ancelotti’s contract have been ready for some time but the speed with which he was appointed
after his Napoli exit last week have meant that some of the paperwork in Italy was yet to be completed
