Everton are reportedly ready to do whatever it takes to keep Jordan Pickford from the clutches of some of Europe’s biggest clubs.
England’s No.1 has been one of the defining factors of the keep evertonstate of the Premier League in recent years.

Pickford finished second to Arsenal’s David Raya in the Golden Glove race last season and has produced some vital performances in recent seasons.
This campaign, Pickford has kept more clean sheets (7) than any other Premier League goalkeeper, while keeping a clean sheet in five of Everton’s last six games.
With the Toffees only scoring 14 goals in 16 games so far, that reliability between the posts has been vital in keeping them out of the relegation zone once again.
Jordan Pickford: Everton pushing for new deal
according to TBR, ChelseaBarcelona and Bayern Munich are among the clubs taking note of Pickford’s recent form.
Even now, any move for Pickford would be expensive, with the goalkeeper’s current contract running until the summer of 2027.
However, the TBR report claims that Everton will look to put new terms on the table that will keep him on Merseyside until at least 2030. Given that he is already 30 years old, it could be a deal that will see him through to retirement.
according to capologyPickford is Everton’s second-highest paid player on £125,000-a-week, behind only Abdoulaye Doucoure, who is paid £130,000-a-week.
It goes without saying that a new deal for Pickford would likely see him overtake Doucoure as the club’s top earner.
However, the former Sunderland goalkeeper is understood to be open to staying at Everton, where he has become a firm fan favourite.
