Roberto Martinez leaves Everton

"He secured the club its highest ever Premier League points total, a place in the last 16 of the Europa League and appearances in both domestic cup semi-finals."

Roberto Martinez has left Everton in the wake of Wednesday night's 3-0 defeat at Sunderland, the club have confirmed.

The 42-year-old, who replaced David Moyes as manager in 2013, had faced mounting calls for his departure after a run of just one win in their last 10 games.
