Phelan says no discussions over Everton future yet

Everton interim manager Scott Phelan says he has had no discussions with the club about his future in the role.

Phelan took over following Brian Sorensen's sacking in February and oversaw three successive victories in the Women's Super League immediately afterwards.

The Toffees currently sit eighth in the table as they prepare for their final game of the season against bottom club Leicester City.

"Nothing to report in terms of things that are more long term, but in the short term, we're happy with how we've done so far," said Phelan.

"I've really enjoyed it. Obviously the decision is a club one but it's definitely something that I've enjoyed and the staff have.

"It's been an amazing experience and an amazing opportunity which I'm really fortunate to have had.

"We feel like we've made an impression. We feel like we've ticked off the obstacles that were set. We'll see where that goes moving forward."

Whatever his position is in the future, Phelan hopes the club will build more stability next season after a disruptive campaign.

Asked what the club will be aiming for next season, he said: "One of my suggestions would probably be finding a greater sense of identity amongst the group.

"One of the first things I noticed was probably a little bit of uncertainty around how we play and what it stands for. That's something any group needs to understand before they can start to develop and push forward."
