Midfielder Muhamed Besic has signed a new five-and-a-half-year contract with Everton.
The 23-year-old has been rewarded for his positive form of late, which culminated in him being named the club's Player of the Month in January.
"I'm really happy to have signed a new contract with a club such as Everton. After a year-and-a-half with the club, it makes me proud that they have given me a new deal," he told the club's official website.
"When I first arrived here it was difficult for me, but now I feel at home. The supporters, as well as the manager, the staff and my teammates, have all made me welcome at the club and I feel really happy.
"It was very easy when I heard about it. It was clear that I wanted to stay and sign the new contract."
The Bosnian, who joined the Toffees from Ferencvaros in 2014, is currently sidelined by a hamstring injury.
