(Reuters) - Everton are targeting European qualification this season but failure to secure a continental berth will not change the Premier League club's long-term plans, manager Carlo Ancelotti said on Friday.

Everton are unbeaten since the season restarted after the COVID-19 hiatus and sit 11th in the standings with 44 points -- three points behind seventh-placed Sheffield United who occupy the final Europa League spot with six games to go.
