Bayern Munich are understood to be keen on securing the services of Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, according to TBR Football.
The news outlet reported on 24 December that along with the Bavarian giants, other clubs like Barcelona and Chelsea are also keen on securing the England number one’s services.
Dan Friedkin is keen on making early moves after the takeover and wants to tie the 30-year-old down to a lifetime contract at the club.
Everton may find it tough to keep Jordan Pickford
The lure to join these clubs may be too good to turn down as they represent some of the elite in European football, offering not only higher competition but also the chance to play in the Champions League or Europe, which is a significant draw for any footballer.
The prestige, the winning culture, and the global fanbase these teams boast could elevate the Englishman’s career profile significantly.

Moreover, the financial packages, including potentially higher wages and signing bonuses, add another layer of temptation.
For Everton, with Friedkin now at the helm, keeping the 30-year-old would require an offer that not only matches these financial aspects but also provides a vision for the club’s future where the goalkeeper is a central figure.
This might mean offering a lifetime contract with assurances of club investment, stability and a role in shaping the club’s long-term success, making the decision to stay as attractive as any move abroad.

It is unlikely to be a hard sell for the fans as they already admire Pickford and have seen him grow from a laughing stock to one of the best keepers around.
