Carlo coup
Everton owner Farhad Moshiri is understood to have held “positive talks” with Ancelotti. The experienced Italian coach, who previously managed Chelsea, was sacked last week by Serie A giants Napoli.
The Daily Express calls it a “Carlo coup” for the Toffees and a deal could be in place in time for Ancelotti to take change of the team for Saturday’s Premier League fixture against Arsenal.

Gunners director Josh Kroenke is due to meet with Manchester City assistant Arteta, says The Times, to discuss the vacant position at the north London club.
Champions Man City are not happy with the way Arsenal have handled negotiations with Arteta. “Arsenal are taking the Mikel”, Metro reports.
The Guardian adds that while City are unhappy with Arsenal’s tactics they will not stand in the way of Arteta becoming the next boss at the Emirates.
