Everton manager Roberto Martinez is expected to pick his backroom staff for the upcoming 2013-14 season within the next week.

The Spaniard is expected to begin work with his new club in the next few days following his arrival on Merseyside after departing recently-relegated Wigan Athletic.

"For Roberto to bring in his team is absolutely what he wants to do and we want to support him on it," Sky Sports News quotes chief executive Robert Elstone as saying.

"We are working hard to do that and I'm hoping in the near future that Roberto will have his team. He is also integrating into a very strong, solid team that already exists here."

Current Everton assistant manager Steve Round and coach Jimmy Lumsden have been linked with moves to Manchester United with former Toffees boss David Moyes.
