Everton defender Bryan Oviedo has inked a new three-and-a-half year contract to June 2019.

"I am really happy to commit my future to Everton because this is a special club and, for me, a second home," he tells the club website.

"When I experienced some really tough times, the toughest of my career, everybody was behind me – the manager, the staff, the players and the fans and that support helped me through and made me stronger, as a person and as a player."
