Everton have announced Brendan Galloway has put pen to paper on a new five-year deal with the club.
Galloway, 19, has emerged as a real prospect this season in the wake of Leighton Baines’ injury absence.
And Everton have moved to reward his services by securing the youngster’s long-term future at the club.
“I’m really happy to commit my future here,” he told Everton’s official website.
“This is a club that has got so much young talent and is moving forward. It’s great to be able to commit to being a part of that.
“My family came up to watch me sign so it was nice to have them around. They have been with me all the way.”
Since the start of the season, no player has blocked more crosses in the Premier League than Galloway (19).
