Everton boss Roberto Martinez is planning a new deal for Samuel Eto'o.
Eto'o, 33, signed a 12-month contract when he joined in August, with the option of another year included in the terms. Eto'o, however, is guaranteed that extra season if he starts 15 times. He has currently made five, with four appearances from the bench.
"It's just natural he will get another year," said Martinez. "The option for a second year is based on number of starts, so it will come automatically. All I want is for him to enjoy his football and convey the winning mentality he has to the rest of the team.
"I always thought his period at Everton would be a minimum of two years, because the option reflects that.
"He could trigger the clause very soon, the way he's playing. But the clause is not in my mind, his mind.
"He could have chosen any league in the world. He chose Everton because he wants to be successful."
