Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford is reportedly set to sign a new long-term contract with the Merseyside club.

Since joining Everton from Sunderland in the summer of 2017, Pickford has gone on to make 222 appearances for the Toffees.

With less than 18 months left on his current deal, there has been widespread speculation surrounding his future at Goodison Park.

Pickford has attracted interest from a number of Premier League clubs, including Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur.

Recent reports had suggested that talks over a new Everton contract had hit a stumbling block over the goalkeeper's proposed salary.

However, Everton boss Sean Dyche reportedly urged the club to agree a new deal with the England number one as a matter of priority.

According to The Times, significant progress has been made in negotiations, and Pickford is now set to sign a new contract until 2027.

Pickford, who played a crucial role in helping Everton avoid relegation last season, was always determined to remain with the Merseyside club.

The new deal is believed to be worth £35m and does not include a relegation clause that would allow him to leave should Everton drop down to the Championship.

Pickford has played 22 of Everton's 23 Premier League games this season, and he has managed to keep two clean sheets in Dyche's first three matches in charge.

Speaking ahead of Saturday's home meeting with Aston Villa, Dyche claimed that Pickford's new deal shows that he is happy with the "new regime".

Dyche told reporters: "He's a very, very good player, a good servant to this club so far and he's going to continue to be that for sure.

"I think it's a sign that he's enjoying our new regime and he's accepting of what we're looking to offer. He's been a fantastic player, so we want that to continue."

With Pickford's long-term future secured, Everton are also looking to agree a new deal with Alex Iwobi, who is out of contract in June 2024.

The Toffees occupy 16th place in the Premier League table and sit just one point above the relegation zone.
