Jordan Pickford Commits Future to Everton with New Long-Term Contract

October 13, 2025 – Everton FC has secured a major boost ahead of their upcoming Premier League clash with Manchester City, as star goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has agreed to a new long-term contract. The deal, set to be officially signed this week, extends the 31-year-old England international’s stay at Goodison Park beyond his current 2027 expiration date, marking the club’s richest-ever contract for a player.

Pickford, who joined Everton from Sunderland in 2017 for £30 million, has been a cornerstone of the team, making 326 appearances and recording 91 clean sheets. His consistency has been vital, especially during the club’s recent financial and on-field challenges, including relegation battles and ownership transitions. This season, he has already kept four clean sheets in nine league games under manager David Moyes.

The agreement reflects Everton’s determination to retain their captain and England’s first-choice goalkeeper, who recently broke Gordon Banks’ record with eight consecutive international clean sheets. Despite past interest from top clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea, Pickford’s decision underscores his loyalty to the Toffees. The new deal is expected to provide stability as Everton navigates its move to a new stadium, with Pickford poised to climb higher on the club’s all-time appearance list.
