Former Everton manager Sean Dyche was sacked by Nottingham Forest earlier this month.
Sean Dyche only lasted 114 days in the Forest job before Evangelos Marinakis decided to move him on after a goalless draw with Wolves.
The former Everton manager could make a quick return to the dugout, though, as two clubs are emerging as potential destinations.

According to Sportsboom, Dyche could make an emotional return to Burnley, with Scott Parker under increasing pressure.
West Bromwich Albion are also in the mix, and the report claims that he is their ‘top target’ to replace the recently sacked Eric Ramsay.
Sean Dyche unlikely to accept West Bromwich Albion job
It was reported earlier this month that Dyche rejected the chance to join Leicester City, who are fighting to survive in the Championship.
West Brom are in a similar position, as they reside just one point above the Foxes in 21st place, so the West Midlanders will likely get the same response.

What changes would you make? 🤔
Everton vs Newcastle United predicted XI.
Dyche’s stock won’t have dropped much, as figures around the game will recognise how difficult it is to survive at Forest under Marinakis.
The 52-year-old, albeit across fewer games, actually managed to achieve his best points per game record in his career at the City Ground.
Club Matches Points per game
Nottingham Forest 25 1.40
Everton 83 1.23
Burnley 425 1.34
Watford 49 1.37
Dyche’s managerial record
The former Toffees boss will probably bide his time and wait for a top-end Championship job or better still, a Premier League role.
It has also been reported that Dyche is keen to take the Crystal Palace job once Oliver Glasner departs at the end of the season.
That probably wouldn’t go down too well with supporters though, so that seems like wishful thinking, really.
