Pereira on shortlist to replace Rafa Benitez
Vitor Pereira is the latest boss to be interviewed for the Everton vacancy.
The Portuguese is a free agent after being sacked by Turkish side Fenerbahce last month.
Pereira is on a shortlist to replace axed Rafa Benitez that also includes Wayne Rooney, Frank Lampard and caretaker Duncan Ferguson, although Everton are considering a wide range of candidates.
Saturday’s 1-0 home defeat by Aston Villa has heightened fears they will be dragged into a relegation scrap.
But keeper Jordan Pickford is confident the Toffees, who have not been relegated since 1951, will survive.
He said: "The fight, intensity, tempo was there. We showed that graft.
"We showed character and desire. It was just that finishing touch but that will come.
"It's about working hard on the training pitch, and then going out there and expressing yourself with determination and we'll get those results."
Everton divided over Wayne Rooney return to Goodison Park
Everton chiefs are divided over offering star Wayne Rooney an emotional return to Goodison Park.
Chairman Bill Kenwright would love to bring the former Toffees hero back to the club as boss.
But owner Farhad Moshiri is understood to be wary over his lack of experience.
Rooney, 36, is lined up to replace axed Rafa Benitez.
However, Moshiri has yet to be convinced that Rooney has the credentials after just over a year in charge of crisis club Derby.
He is battling to keep the Rams up after they were deducted 21 points and placed into administration.
But the former striker has not distanced himself from the Everton vacancy.
