The 31-year-old joined the club from Sunderland in 2017 for £30m, which was a British record fee for a goalkeeper at the time. His previous deal had been due to expire in 2027.

The best comments from Everton fans

Tommy | It's a shame Pickford hasn't got any silverware with us because he has been the rock that we've clung on to at times to stay afloat. But we've got through the storms and I can see sunnier times ahead for Pickford and the club. A big thanks to ours and England's undoubted number one.

Jake | Great news. Pickford staying at Everton shows his class. The club owe him so much as we would be in the Championship without him. Everton has a legacy of great, long-serving goalkeepers and I think Pickford will eventually go down as the greatest.

Damian | I was around for the Neville Southall days, and Pickford is easily the best goalkeeper since. Having such a vital position tied down for a long time means that we have a rock solid foundation to build the team on. I'm delighted and it sounds like he genuinely loves the club.

Sarah W | I’ve watched plenty of great goalkeepers at Everton over the years, but Pickford is right up there. He’s matured so much and has kept us in the Premier League almost on his own at times. It’s hard to believe anyone ever doubted him now – he’s become a truly top-class keeper.

Marcus | In an era of talented players and their agents chasing bigger contract deals and moving clubs every two to three years, it is refreshing to see Pickford, a world-class goalkeeper, stick with one club and be rewarded for his loyalty.

Anthony | Honestly, this is excellent news. I know some Evertonians were maybe not fully convinced of him a couple of years ago but he has almost single-handedly kept us in the Premier League the past couple of seasons and has now really seemed to have matured into a top goalkeeper. It is now almost laughable to see people criticise or doubt him.
