Ashley Young, 38, joined Everton last summer on a 1+1 year contract. In May this year, Everton confirmed that they had offered the veteran a new contract. Ashley Young revealed in an interview, "We're close to talking everything through, we've been negotiating during the summer. Now it's just a matter of finalizing some details and then I'll sign the new contract."
Since joining Everton, Ashley Young has made 34 appearances for the team, scoring 1 goal in a consistent performance that helped the team to successfully stay in the relegation. His experience and leadership has been instrumental in Everton's defense.
Ashley Young moved to Everton from Aston Villa last summer. An experienced player, he has played for several Premier League teams including Watford, Aston Villa and Manchester United. His versatility and on-field intelligence make him an important part of the team.
Ashley Young's contract extension will add more experience and stability to Everton's new season. It is also a fitting choice for the veteran to remain at Everton as he looks to continue his role in the team and help the team achieve better results in the new season.
