£30m Everton player suggests he wants to stay at the club but has not been offered a new contract

The Friedkin Group will soon be preparing to offer out contracts with many Everton stars having uncertain futures.

David Moyes might have difficulty keeping hold of players after a brilliant 3-1 win away to Fulham.

The result means the Toffees are getting the best out of this bottom table mini-league, which will be some form of a win for the Scotsman.

Team MP W D L GD Pts
13 Everton 36 9 15 12 -5 42
14 Wolves 36 12 5 19 -13 41
15 West Ham 36 10 10 16 -17 40
16 Man Utd 36 10 9 17 -11 39
17 Tottenham 36 11 5 20 4 38

But despite the positives, it might have given the manager a headache as Moyes’ praise of Carlos Alcaraz suggests a transfer will happen for the Argentine.

Out-of-contract assets at Everton could also now be in the frame to stay, and one player knows that’s exactly what he wants.

Of course, Alcaraz was someone who proved his worth, but Michael Keane scoring on Saturday might have sent a message to Moyes.

It was a strong performance from the centre-back and shows a vast improvement from Keane’s unforgivable display vs Man City.

The performance from the whole team was a brilliant reaction to three games without a win, but it’s clear Moyes was especially impressed with Keane.

With his contract expiring this summer, the 32-year-old might have just proved he can be valuable to the squad next season, and he certainly doesn’t want to leave anytime soon.

Speaking in a post-match interview after the triumph at Craven Cottage, Keane sent a clear message to The Friedkin Group regarding his contract situation.

“I don’t know, honestly. I’ve not had any conversations about it yet,” Keane said.
