Everton winger Ashley Young has signed a one-year contract extension with the club after joining last summer. Last season, at 38 years old, he became the club’s oldest debutant and played 34 times, scoring one goal. He impressed manager Sean Dyche with his qualities both on and off the pitch in a number of wide roles.
Young expressed his excitement about staying with Everton, calling it a “no-brainer” decision. After speaking to the manager before the end of the season, he immediately agreed to stay because he loved his time at the club. Despite the ups and downs, Young sees the potential of the club and wants to be a part of its growth and success.
With 453 Premier League appearances under his belt, Young brings valuable experience and leadership to the team. Dyche, who captained Young when they were teammates at Watford, emphasized the importance of Young’s qualities and versatility. His presence on the team will undoubtedly benefit Everton in the upcoming season.
Fans of the Toffees are likely pleased with Young’s contract extension and are eager to see what he can continue to bring to the team as a seasoned professional with a wealth of experience.
