Everton have said that caretaker manager Duncan Ferguson will take charge of the Toffees' game against Arsenal at the weekend, despite reports that Carlo Ancelotti is on the verge of becoming the club's next manager, following the sacking of Marco Silva. Ancelotti is expected to sign a four-and-a-half year deal to take the managerial reins at the Merseyside club. The statement read: "Duncan Ferguson will remain as caretaker manager for Everton’s Premier League clash at home to Arsenal on Saturday. "Ferguson will again be assisted by coaches John Ebbrell and Francis Jeffers and goalkeeper coach Aalan Kelly." JUST IN: Man City furious over Arsenal's Mikel Arteta behaviour
