Everton’s Naismith Signs 3-Year Contract Extension

Steven Naismith has extended his Everton contract until 2018.

The Scotland international arrived at Goodison Park in June 2012 and has developed into a regular player under Roberto Martinez.

Naismith told evertontv: “I am so happy here. From the moment I signed my first contract here it wasn’t long before I saw what a great Club it was.

“I am delighted to have agreed an extension which will keep me here for a few more years yet.”

Naismith was on target in each of his first three games this season, against Leicester City, Arsenal and Chelsea. The 28-year-old made a scoring return from a hamstring injury in Monday evening’s 3-1 win over Queens Park Rangers.

The Scot has scored a total of six goals for the Toffees in the current campaign.
