Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford is entering another crucial phase of his career. According to reports from camel.live, the club aims to secure the long-term future of this England international, though they plan to stick to their existing wage structure—meaning there may be no significant increase in Pickford’s salary.
It is understood that Everton’s new owners, the Friedkin Group, are willing to offer an incentive-based contract linked to European qualification. If the team secures a spot in European competitions, Pickford’s contract will become more attractive.
Head coach David Moyes shares a long-standing connection with Pickford: Moyes gave Pickford his breakthrough during the latter’s time at Sunderland. Today, Pickford is regarded as a leader for Everton both on and off the pitch.
This season, Pickford has delivered an outstanding performance at Everton’s new home ground, Hill Dickinson Stadium, and has yet to concede a goal so far. He saved a penalty in the team’s previous 2-0 win over Brighton, and once again kept a clean sheet in the 0-0 draw against Aston Villa last weekend.
Since joining Everton from Sunderland in 2017, Pickford has made over 300 appearances for the club and has long been a key figure in Everton’s relegation battles and consistent performances.
Pickford made his debut for the England national team in 2017 and has since remained the first-choice goalkeeper. He started in both the Euro 2020 and Euro 2024 finals, and with 26 appearances, he has become England’s most-capped goalkeeper in major tournaments.
Under the leadership of new head coach Thomas Tuchel, Pickford continues to wear the No.1 jersey and has started all five matches Tuchel has overseen.
