Everton are hoping to sort out the appointment of a new manager in time for him to have a full week to work with the squad before their next game against Arsenal in February, according to The Times.
Lampard was dismissed on Monday following a horror run of form that pushed Everton to 19th in the Premier League table.
With a new stadium on the cards, Everton are desperate to not get relegated and are now on the lookout for a new manager. Former Leeds United boss Bielsa has emerged as the favoured candidate, with owner Farhad Moshiri pushing to bring the 67-year-old to Goodison Park.
And it has been claimed that Everton want to bring in a new manager in time for him to work with the squad ahead of the Arsenal game. With next weekend reserved for the FA Cup, Everton have bought some time in their search for a new manager.
But the board are keen to give the new manager a full week to prepare for the Arsenal game on 4th February. Bielsa is the man they want as they feel he is the kind of inspirational figure who could impose himself on an ill-disciplined squad.
There is also a belief that the Argentine would be up for the challenge of working at Everton and helping them avoid relegation this season.

Sean Dyche may want the Everton job but the Toffees are thought to be a little unsure over whether he is the right man for the job.
Dyche, 51, has history of coping with relegation battles having consistently kept Burnley in the Premier League before last season.
Sacked by Burnley in April, Dyche was let go after nearly 10 years in the job after some miraculous work at Turf Moor.
Dyche guided Burnley to promotion twice and even took them into Europe all whilst uniting the fanbase right behind him.
Everton do need that kind of unity right now and Dyche’s know-how in the lower reaches of the Premier League table makes him an appealing candidate.
Yet with Dyche’s brand of football maybe not excite fans and Everton may believe that they need to go in another direction.

Are there any that spring to mind as being ideal? To be honest no. The likes of Dyche/Allardyce etc would suit the situation , but would our gutless players respond? Ferguson would be an emotional one , but again surely would struggle. I think as harsh as it seems, the club needs ripping apart and starting again and I am afraid relegation may well be the catalyst for that. In answer to your question no-one currently would feel confident of rescuing this sinking ship of misery and incompetence.
