Jordan Pickford signs new long-term contract with Everton

Everton announce that goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has signed a new six-year contract at Goodison Park.

Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has signed a new six-year contract at Goodison Park.

The Toffees signed Pickford from Sunderland before the start of the 2017-18 campaign, and the stopper has gone on to establish himself for the Merseyside outfit and England.

Pickford was linked with a move away from the Toffees having helped the Three Lions to the World Cup semi-finals, but he has opted to commit his long-term future to his current team.

The 24-year-old told the club's official website: "When I made the move last year I thought Everton would be a great club to come to and the right step in my career.

"Getting the opportunity to become England's No. 1 was down to being at Everton, I believe, and being able to put in solid performances week in and week out.

"Coming to Everton, a massive club with a massive history and seeing how passionate and determined the fans are, it's inspired me to perform week in and week out and it's moved my career on, without question. I want to play as many games as I can for the club, that's my goal now."

Pickford has already made a total of 52 appearances for Everton in all competitions.
