Everton goalkeeper Zan-Luk Leban pens new deal

Everton goalkeeper Zan-Luk Leban has signed a new contract to June 2025.

The 20-year-old moved to Merseyside in 2019 from Polish side FCB Escola Varsovia and has grown into a vital member of Paul Tait's squad.

Having successfully stepped up from the Under-18s, Leban has already made 15 Premier League 2 appearances this season and played a starring role in the young Blues' thrilling run to the last 16 of the Papa John's Trophy.

After putting pen to paper on the new deal, the Slovenia youth international spoke of his determination to keep progressing with the Blues.

“It feels great to sign this new deal after all the hard work in recent seasons," Leban told evertontv. “It feels like a reward and motivation moving forward.

“Playing Under-21s football week in and week out has helped me massively. It has given me great experience, and the staff have been brilliant to work with."
