The Naples giants might be in the knockout round of the European Cup, but they have not won in Serie A since October 19, whilst they sit down in seventh spot in the table.
The Telegraph have reported that Everton are keen on appointing Ancelotti as their next head coach, and many of the Merseyside club’s fans are desperate for that to happen, with some commenting before the official news had been released.
However, it would be fair to say that there are also a lot of Everton fans who feel that their club have absolutely no chance of luring the Italian to Goodison Park.

Indeed, Arsenal are also without a permanent manager following the departure of Unai Emery, and The Telegraph have claimed that the Gunners are also very much in the argument for the 60-year-old.
There are also some Everton supporters who would not be too keen if Ancelotti did arrive, despite the fact that the Italian won the Premier League title during his time with Chelsea and has landed a whole host of trophies as a manager.
One thing is for sure, Vitor Pereira will not be Everton’s next manager as the Portuguese, who is in charge of Shanghai SIPG, has officially ruled himself out of the running despite a host of speculation.
The Toffees are currently preparing for Sunday’s trip to Manchester United, who will be full of confidence after winning their last two in the Premier League against Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City.
Meanwhile, a number of Everton fans were particularly pleased with the performance of one man in Saturday’s 3-1 win over Chelsea.
