Rangers boss Steven Gerrard insists he could never consider taking the Everton job.
Carlo Ancelotti's departure for Real Madrid saw a host of coaches linked with the Goodison Park job, including Gerrard, with the Liverpool icon impressing at Rangers.
"I was very shocked and surprised that my name was linked to the job," he told ESPN.
"I don't know where it came from, whether it was paper talk or if there was any truth in it, I'm not sure.
"'[Managing Everton] is never a possibility as far as I'm concerned."
