Everton under-21s midfielder Einar Iversen has signed a new one-year contract, keeping him at Goodison Park until the summer of 2023.
The Norwegian joined the Blues from his hometown club, Stord IL, five years ago and has seen his progress disrupted by a serious ACL injury sustained in March 2021. Iversen missed the entirety of the 2021/22 campaign, although he recently returned to training after 16 months spent on the sidelines.
Iversen's deal at the club expired at the end of June but Everton have now rewarded the determination and patience of the Academy prospect with a contract extension. Initially a member of the club's under-18s side, the talented youngster progressed into the under-23s during the 2020/21 season and made a total of 19 appearances.
