Everton are reportedly contemplating an approach for Flamengo boss Jorge Jesus.

Despite strong speculation regarding a change in the dugout, the Toffees have decided to keep Marco Silva in charge for Sunday's Premier League encounter at Leicester City.

However, according to The Telegraph, the Merseyside outfit have identified Jesus as a potential replacement for Silva.

While Jesus is widely known for his spells with Benfica and Sporting Lisbon, the 65-year-old has recently won the Copa Libertadores with Flamengo.

There is, however, a suggestion that Jesus would only become available after managing the Brazilian side in the Club World Cup next month.

David Moyes and Eddie Howe have also been linked with Everton since the weekend.
