Everton are expected to appoint former defender David Weir to their backroom staff after holding talks last week.
Weir, 51, has been working for Brighton as their loans manager and is due to return to Goodison in a player development role.
He made over 600 career appearances and played in the 1998 World Cup for Scotland.
He won 69 caps, captained his country four times and set a new record for Scotland’s oldest international when he played in 2010 aged 40 years, 116 days.
