		</div><p>Everton boss Sean Dyche and captain Seamus Coleman have paid tribute to chairman Bill Kenwright, who died on Monday at the age of 78.</p>
<p>On Wednesday morning, Dyche and Coleman laid flowers at the statue of Dixie Dean outside Goodison Park, where the Everton squad were holding a training session.</p>
<p>All players and staff observed a minute’s silence before the session and Kenwright’s image was shown on the stadium’s screens.</p>
<p>Everton announced on Tuesday that Kenwright had died following a battle with cancer.</p>
<p>Dyche was told of the news midway through Tuesday’s training and called an immediate halt to the session as players and staff paid their respects.</p>
<p>Kenwright, who succeeded Sir Phillip Carter as chairman in 2004 after first joining the board at Goodison Park in 1989, had a cancerous tumour removed from his liver in August.</p>
<p>Liverpool-born Kenwright was a successful theatre and film producer when asked to join the Everton board in 1989.</p>
<p>He bought a majority 68 per cent stake in the club in 1999 and became deputy chairman before replacing Carter in his current role.</p>
