 Welcome to Sovi TV to the Everton News Daily. Jordan Pickford has signed a new four and a half year deal with Everton. Keep him in at the club until the end of June 2027. This is good news in my opinion. You're protecting the asset. There was room yesterday that there was no relegation release clause so he seems happy to sign. He's playing every week. I think if he went to somewhere higher, he might be competing with a goalkeeper. If he's playing every week at a club like Everton, which is a big club in the Premier League, then he'll probably keep his spotters England number one. So for him, I'm sure he's delighted. I'm sure for Everton, if someone comes in now, it's going to be quite a big bid, especially if Everton stays up. And then that's where you look at, well, we need to sell assets, maybe a bit with Charleston. But for now, Jordan Pickford has signed a four and a half year deal. And he says it's massive for him to extend this day at such a special club. He says the support I've had from everyone at the club since I joined as a 22 year old has been so important to my family and me. I'm happy here and so am I family. We love it at Everton. Everton is a massive club. The past few seasons have not been what we wanted, but now we have a manager who I believe will point us in the right direction and get us up the table. It's definitely my aim to be successful at this club. The fans, the staff and my teammates have been great with me from the moment I joined and I want to be great for them. Good news. In terms of other contract news, Connor Cody, who is on loan, has been rumoured again that he's going to be made permanent. 4.5 million deal. A few people have said that they might look at Branfaite to come back and put him in. Whether he's ready, I don't know, but I think one thing I would say, Connor Cody's been a good loan signing in my opinion. I think you'd notice the difference if you wouldn't say it this season. So, for 4.5 million, I know it's not at the age of 30 or whatever he is. I know it's not like an investment and I know I'm not going to sell him on for 20 million into your time, whatever, or 30, whatever. But I think for a small nominal fee like that, I think it's worth taking him because he's been good. Another player I've been linked with, not on loan at Everton, he plays for Frankfurt, he's called Daichi Kamada. We've been linked with him plenty of times before January, last year and in January after the World Cup. Dortmund are also interested, he's 26, he's scored 13 goals already this season, Champions League and in the Bundesliga. He's a free agent in the summer, so I can't imagine if Dortmund went in, he plays in the Bundesliga, Dortmund are a massive club. If he's probably the first team football player, he'll probably take it, but Everton are still a big club, Premier League. I'm sure he'll be interested in the opportunity. He's a good age, 26, he still has some resale value if he wants to, but more importantly he's got a bit of potential left in him at 26, he's not young, but he's a good age and like I said he's a free agent so he won't be spending any money on him. In my opinion, I wouldn't sign players on the basis of watching him in the World Cup, but I have watched him in the World Cup playing against teams with lots of quality and he did look very good. His goal returning to the Bundesliga and the Champions League proves that he's a good player and more than capable and I think he'd be more than capable to play in the Premier League, so it'd be a yes from me, hopefully that gets done. We're going to be linked with a lot of lots of players between now and summer and we might only sign a couple, hopefully he's the one on the one that we sign. Finally, Everton women have sold 10,000 tickets for the Merseyside Derby, which takes place at Gooderson Park on the 24th of March. It's a Friday 7.30pm kick-off, it was meant to be on the Sunday, half 12th kick-off I think it was, but that's been moved to Friday night at 7.30pm. Gooderson Park, excellent news, 10,000 people showed up for the Derby. We played at Anfield earlier on this year, I think it was September 25th. We played at Anfield and beaten 3-0, really good performance so hopefully we can get the same results. They've been playing brilliant this season, Everton women and I think one of the likes at Gooderson Park, Derby, 10,000 people supporting them and I think it would be really, really exciting and good, hopefully they'll get the results and the three points.
