Jordan Pickford has agreed to sign a new contract with Everton amid interest from Manchester United, it's been claimed.
The England goalkeeper has entered the final 18 months of his deal on Merseyside as the Toffees battle to retain their Premier League status. Pickford, 28, had been locked in contract talks with Goodison Park chiefs and recently emerged as a target for United manager Erik ten Hag while the Red Devils continue to asses long-term alternatives to David de Gea amid his uncertain future.
Mirror Football reported in January that fellow Premier League big boys Tottenham were also interested in the former Sunderland shot-stopper to succeed Hugo Lloris, but Pickford looks set to extend his five-and-a-half-year stay at Everton. The Athletic claims that should everything go to plan, the 28-year-old will sign his new deal this week.
