Jordan Pickford

[King of the Lane]

Surely he has better options than signing a new deal at Everton

Maybe it will include a reasonable relegation clause. I cant see why else he would sign a new one.

If Pickford is off the table and Raya decides to go to United. I'd like us to go for Lafont at Nantes.

I know someone who played against him recently and said he was outstanding. Only going to get better, big lad too.

Lafont would be my first choice of affordable long term replacements for Hugo. However we may have a home grown quota issue so I think Raya will be the clubs first choice.

 

[Stamford]

As long as he doesnt come here i dont really mind

 

[spursfan77]

I’ve always struggled to believe he was the one we were seriously looking at to replace Lloris. Doesn’t have it up top.

 

[GetSpurredOn]

Not sure where else to put it, but since it’s goalkeeper related, there were a number of articles yesterday stating we have agreed a deal to sign Altay Bayindir from Fenerbahce in the summer, free transfer as he’s coming out of contract. 24 year old 6ft6 Turkish international, currently seen as the no2 keeper in the national team but pushing to oust the no1 keeper.

England goalkeeper Pickford agrees new Everton deal

England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, who was approaching the last 12 months of his contract, agrees a new deal with Everton.

www.bbc.co.uk

New deal has been confirmed. Interesting that they specifically mentioned us as being interested, that's unlike the BBC.

"Number of articles" = a bunch of shit aggregators posted a link citing some random turkish site by way of 90min football

Was really concerned about him being genuinely considered as a replacement for Hugo. Can't understand how he's the international number one, as he's a headless chicken, but it's not my nation so not too concerned about that. But I do think we should be taking a serious look at Irelands two young keepers, Bazunu at Southampton and Kelliher playing back up at Liverpool, both are proper sweeper keepers, which is what the game is about nowadays. Plus mental as it may seem, both would probably be cheaper options than Pickford purely based on status.

Would really like us to to go for Kelleher. He's always impressed me for Liverpool and when he's played for us on international duty

 

[Cochise]

Can't have release clauses in England right?

You can have them in England. Jack Grealish had one for £100m at Aston Villa.

 

[Cochise]

I reckon he'll have some get out clauses then. Maybe to cover if "x" club offers a certain amount or if Everton get relegated.

 

[Col_M]

Interesting it doesn’t mention the length of contract. It’s obviously good for morale that he signs, but maybe it’s just a 1-2yr extension.

 

[Japhet]

Don't see Henderson staying at Utd. He'd be my choice if we're going HG.

Wasn't that more of a verbal agreement with the owner rather than a clause in his contract?

 

[anydange]

Just watched MOTD2 highlights of the Everton/Forest match. Pickford spilled every save.

I think it was actually written into the contract, see: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58108299

I like keepers that go through matches looking like they haven’t done all that much. The ones that play with an air of calmness even when they’re getting peppered with shots. That’s not Pickford. Everything looks so chaotic with him.

He looks pissed off at every moment in a match.
