The Italian was axed minutes after finishing his post-match media duties at Goodison Park, when he again reiterated his future would be decided at a meeting with the club’s hierarchy this week.

But he was denied even that and was instead given his marching orders by chief executive Ron Gourlay.

Ancelotti was seen as a dead man walking ever since his side’s defeat at Old Trafford this month which effectively handed the Premier League title to Manchester United.

It is believed this move was pre-planned, with the club keen to resolve any uncertainty about Ancelotti’s future before the players go on holiday this week.

The search now begins for the Blues’ seventh manager in the eight years since Abramovich’s takeover. Guus Hiddink – who had a successful spell as caretaker boss – is thought to be the Russian’s No.1 target.

Despite winning the club’s first Double in his maiden season last year, Ancelotti followed it up with the worst campaign of the Abramovich era and a Chelsea statement said: ‘This season’s performances have fallen short of expectations and the club feels the time is right to make this change.’

Ancelotti’s Chelsea exit overshadowed this result, with Jermaine Beckford’s fine individual strike on 74 minutes handing Everton victory even though they played for most of the second half with ten men following Seamus Coleman’s dismissal.
