Rafa Benitez will remain in charge of Everton. Despite the negative results, Farhad Moshiri, the club's owner, has decided to make it clear that he will not sack the Spanish coach for now.

Rafa Benitez's situation at Everton is a delicate one. In the last Premier League game, Liverpool won 1-4, which has left the Spanish coach in a difficult situation. 

Everton have not won in their last eight matches, which has led to rumours over the alleged sacking of the Spanish coach. Therefore, the Everton board have come out to deny it. 

Everton owner Farhad Moshiri told 'TalkSPORT', that Benitez will not be sacked and that he will remain in charge of the first team, despite the pressure he has been subjected to.

And in this situation, Everton have some difficult matches coming up. They host Arsenal on Monday, take on Crystal Palace on 12th December and then visit Chelsea four days later.
