Everton star Jordan Pickford is widely regarded as one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League.
Jordan Pickford has been Everton’s number one since 2017 and has racked up a whopping 81 caps for England.
As a result, Pickford is one of the highest earners at the club, only behind Manchester City loanee Jack Grealish.
What do you think was Jordan Pickford’s best ever save for Everton? 🤩
There's just SO many to pick from!
The former Sunderland shot-stopper turns 32 in March, so he still has at least a couple of seasons left at the top.
When Pickford does move on, the Toffees may already have their replacement in the Finch Farm academy.
George Pickford could be Everton’s next goalkeeper
Everton have a number of exciting youngsters in the academy, with the likes of Braiden Graham and Justin Clarke excelling.
In fact, Graham has been catching the eye in first-team training, so he can’t be too far off a debut under David Moyes.

George Pickford is attracting interest from Germany
Pickford’s contract actually expires at the end of the season, so at this stage, he’s due to become a free agent.
Conversations over a renewal will surely be going on behind the scenes, especially since there is interest from overseas.
According to The Athletic, Pickford is being watched by clubs in Germany, although there’s been no word on who.
