Everton star Leighton Baines is close to signing another contract with the club.

The veteran left-back has given most of his career to the Merseyside club.

And now it appears he will extend with the Toffees for another year.

There is interest from other clubs in the Premier League and MLS in the United States.

But The Athletic suggests that Baines gets along with new boss Carlo Ancelotti and that he loves Everton.

He wants to stay, but the 35-year-old is keeping his options open.

It could depend on how the season finishes and the conversation he has with Ancelotti about how much he would play next season.
