Interest drying up for Everton contract rebel Pienaar

Interest is beginning to dry up in Everton contract rebel Steven Pienaar.

The Daily Star says the 28-year-old South ­African is not enjoying the best of seasons and has ­refused to sign a £55,000-a-week contract extension.

Pienaar has scored only once this season and struggled to find the form that saw him named ­player of the year last term.

With his current deal set to expire next ­summer, the Merseysiders may be forced to cash in now, with Tottenham one potential destination.

Aston Villa and ­Liverpool have both shown interest in the past, but are not understood to be in the running now.
