Great news Everton fans, despite speculation to the contrary, it seems as if the Irish international is going nowhere.
Coleman’s fabulous performances for club and country last season had prompted suggestions of a move to the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United, but there had been whispers in the last 24 hours that the Donegal native would commit his future to Everton and the club have confirmed as much this evening. Coleman has put pen to paper on a five-year contract extension that will keep the 25-year old at Goodison Park until 2019, maintaining a strong Irish connection with the Toffees, who also have Irish internationals James McCarthy, Darron Gibson, Aiden McGeady and Shane Duffy in their ranks.BREAKING: Defender Seamus Coleman has signed a five-year contract extension that will keep him at Everton until the summer of 2019. #EFC
