Duncan Ferguson will be in the dugout for Everton’s trip to Manchester United on Sunday.
The Scot was placed in temporary charge of the Toffees following the sacking of Marco Silva last week.
And he guided his former club to a 3-1 win over top-four hopefuls Chelsea in his first game as caretaker manager last weekend.
Former Everton boss David Moyes, Marcelino and Carlo Ancelotti have been linked with permanently replacing Silva at Goodison Park.
But Ferguson will remain in charge for the immediate future.
An Everton statement said: “Duncan Ferguson will remain as Everton caretaker manager for Sunday’s Premier League visit to Manchester United.

“Former striker Ferguson was in charge as the Blues secured a 3-1 victory over Chelsea at Goodison Park on Saturday.
“Ferguson will again be assisted by coaches John Ebbrell and Francis Jeffers and goalkeeper coach Alan Kelly.”
Ferguson revealed he was in tears when seeing his family after Everton’s triumph against Chelsea.
He said: “When you see the kids’ faces, I think one of them was in tears and I was in tears to be honest.
“It was an incredible feeling. I’ve scored goals for this club, I’ve been involved in finals but that was incredible – not the goal but getting the points. It is difficult to describe.
“I’ve popped into the boardroom to see them (his family) and they were obviously delighted. Plenty of tears.”
