Roberto Martinez will stake his claim for more than £10million in compensation from Everton at an independent hearing in London on Wednesday.

Martinez was sacked in May and had more than three years left on his contract but Everton are contesting the figure.

The two parties will have legal representatives state their claims on Wednesday in the hope of reaching a compromise.

Martinez was sacked by the Toffees in May and had more than three years left on his contract

The 42-year-old Spaniard held talks with Anderlecht last week but is keen to return to management in England.

Martinez's tenure at Goodison Park started brightly as he guided Everton to fifth place as they achieved their record points tally in the Premier League.

His second season was very poor. Failure to balance the Europa League with domestic duties saw the Toffees slump to 11th, and the last few months of his tenure were abysmal.

Anderlecht have since appointed Rene Weiler as their new boss.
