Everton sack manager Marco Silva
The Portuguese has became the fourth Premier League manager being fired within three weeks after Tottenham's Mauricio Pochettino, Arsenal's Unai Emery and Watford's Quique Sanchez Flores.
Watford Football Club on Sunday announced they have parted away with their team coach Marco Silva.
“This has been a difficult decision and one not taken lightly. The Club is convinced the appointment of Silva was the right one and had it not been for the unwarranted approach by a Premier League rival for his services we would have continued to prosper under his leadership,” the English football club said in a statement.
“The catalyst for this decision is that unwarranted approach, something which the Board believes has seen a significant deterioration in both focus and results to the point where the long-term future of Watford FC has been jeopardised.

“For the security and success of the football club, the Board believes it has to make a change,” the statement added.
However, the club said they do not want to make a swift move in appointing a replacement and there will be no further comment until it has been made.
