Jordan Pickford: Everton’s Premier League Star Goalkeeper Set to Commit Future to Club

Breaking News: Pickford’s Future at Everton

Breaking news has emerged on September 5th regarding Everton and England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, as the club is set to open contract talks with their number one goalkeeper, aiming to keep him at the club for the rest of his career.

Current Status and Achievement

Since joining from Sunderland in 2017, Pickford has made 322 appearances for the Blues and has become beloved on the blue half of Merseyside, resonating with supporters through his passion and performances on the pitch. At 30 years old, he remains Everton’s undisputed number one, with manager David Moyes considering him a vital member of the squad, a status further reinforced by his position as England’s first-choice goalkeeper.

Recent Performance and Impact

The English national number one has been in impressive form, currently holding the second-best clean sheet record in the Premier League, with three of these coming from the Toffees’ last five matches. His statistics show 91 saves in 31 appearances this season, averaging 2.93 saves per game, with some incredible diving stops that have proven crucial for his team.

Future Prospects

According to Sky Sports News, the proposed new contract could extend beyond Pickford’s 36th birthday, with the club understanding that he is happy, settled, and open to committing the majority, if not all, of his remaining years at the highest level to Everton. At 30 years old, Pickford is still in his prime, and with goalkeepers typically peaking later than outfield players, he could maintain his position as England’s No. 1 for the next two World Cups, making his experience invaluable as England prepares for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
