Everton confident of keeping James Garner

Everton are confident that James Garner will sign a new contract and stay at the Toffees in the long run, according to TBR. 

Manchester United are keen on a deal for Garner in the summer of 2025, with Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, Brentford, Nottingham Forest and Brighton and Hove Albion also keeping tabs on the 24-year-old English midfielder.

Journalist Graeme Bailey told TBR: “James Garner is happy at Everton, he has thoroughly enjoyed playing for David Moyes since coming into the club.

“Garner is a big part of Moyes’s plans and he has made it clear his desire to keep him. Everton are confident that this will happen.

“But his people are aware of interest in him, and why wouldn’t there be? 

“A great age, good experience and versatile, but Everton are more than hopeful he sees his future at the Hill Dickinson.”
