Martin Keown has hailed Jordan Pickford signing a new contract with Everton as fantastic news, praising the England international for being a 'club man'.
Noise around the Blues' number one signing a new deal had surfaced as early as the start of the season, but with Everton finding themselves in another relegation battle, concerns have existed amongst supporters that their goalkeeper could move on to a new challenge, with Tottenham a suggested destination.
But Pickford has put any doubts around his future on Merseyside to bed by agreeing a new four-and-a-half year deal on Friday, that should keep him with the Toffees until 2027, comfortably into the era of the new waterfront stadium.
