Everton are poised to announce youngster Tom Davies has put pen to paper on a new five-year deal after establishing himself as a first-team regular this season, reports The Daily Telegraph.
Davies, 18, has impressed under Ronald Koeman this season and is still finding game time despite competing for places in midfield with Gareth Barry, Ross Barkley, James McCarthy, Idrissa Gueye and Morgan Schneiderlin.
The England Under-21 international’s current deal isn’t due to expire until 2021 but Everton are keen to reward the teenager with improved terms to reflect his new position at the club, with an announcement due next week.
Davies has started nine games for Everton in the premier League this season and has notably weighed in with a direct hand in four goals, scoring once and registering three assists.
