Everton could confirm the appointment of Roberto Martinez as new manager this weekend.

The Sun says the Blues supremo met Martinez in London's Landmark Hotel yesterday lunchtime after the Spaniard told Wigan owner Dave Whelan on Tuesday that he was leaving after four years in charge.

Yet Kenwright is so determined to leave no stone unturned in his efforts to find David Moyes' replacement that he claimed there is still no front-runner for the job.

He has already interviewed internal Goodison hopefuls Phil Neville, Alan Stubbs and David Weir.

Porto's Vitor Pereira and Celtic boss Neil Lennon were also discussed.
