Everton reportedly plan to offer star player a contract lasting until retirement – sources
Everton aim to secure Jordan Pickford with a contract extending until his retirement, reports TBR Football.
On December 24, a news outlet reported that sources believe England’s number one, Jordan Pickford, might agree to a new contract with Everton.
The proposed deal extends until the summer of 2030, with an option for further extension, reflecting Pickford’s vital role at the club.
Securing Pickford on a six-year contract would be a significant achievement for Everton.
Under the new ownership of The Friedkin Group, the club has the potential to establish itself as one of the top teams in England.
While achieving this will be challenging, smart decisions off the field could drive progress, as demonstrated by Aston Villa’s recent success. There’s no reason why Everton can’t replicate such growth.
Having a reliable goalkeeper like Pickford to anchor a new era is a tremendous advantage. Even if he eventually decides to leave, a long-term contract ensures Everton could command a substantial transfer fee.
The commitment is significant for Pickford, as it represents a major part of his career—long-term deals of this nature are typically signed by younger players.
For fans, the news is overwhelmingly positive. Pickford’s decision to stay offers stability and ensures they will continue to see one of their favorites at Goodison Park for years to come.
His presence provides a strong foundation for Everton to build upon during this transformative period.
