Farhad Moshiri and members of the Goodison Park hierarchy will meet in London and interview the three-man shortlist for Rafael Benitez’s successor.
Ex-Chelsea and Derby County boss Frank Lampard is the latest forerunner after several rounds of talks with the Blues during the previous week.
Journeyman coach Vitor Pereira remains in contention despite taking the bizarre step of discussing his Everton prospects in a television interview.
Fans unconvinced by the 53-year-old’s credentials daubed graffiti against him outside Goodison after he emerged as Moshiri’s preferred choice on Tuesday.

Also in the running is Duncan Ferguson, who was installed as caretaker manager in the days following Benitez’s sacking after barely six months.
Everton did not make a formal approach to Derby for Ferguson’s former teammate Wayne Rooney to be involved in their recruitment process.
The final round of interviews marks the end of a chaotic process during which Moshiri’s views on the ideal managerial candidate have fluctuated continually.
