Seamus Coleman Signs New One-Year Deal with Everton
Seamus Coleman has signed a new one-year deal with Everton, extending his stay at Goodison Park until the end of June 2024. The Republic of Ireland right-back, 34, is the Toffees’ longest-serving current player and was appointed club captain in 2019.
Coleman’s Career with Everton
Coleman joined Everton from Sligo Rovers in 2009 and has since made 409 appearances for the club. He will begin his 15th season at Goodison Park after he recovers from a knee injury sustained in May.
Coleman’s Appreciation for Everton
Coleman expressed his appreciation for the club and its fans, saying: “Everyone knows how much Everton means to me which is why it is special to sign this new contract and continue to play for this great club. From the moment I joined more than 14 years ago, the support my family and I have had from our fans and everyone around the club has been amazing and I never take for granted just how fortunate I am to represent Everton. That has included the honour of wearing the captain’s armband in recent years.”
Everton’s Narrow Escape from Relegation
The Toffees narrowly avoided relegation last season, finishing just two points above the drop zone. Manager Carlo Ancelotti will be hoping that Coleman’s experience and leadership can help guide the team to a more successful campaign in 2021/22.
