Gana nets long-term deal with struggling Everton

IDRISSA GANA Gueye has given manager Ronald Koeman a boost by agreeing a new long-term deal to stay at Everton.

The midfielder, 28, has become a fans’ favourite since arriving from Aston Villa for just £7 million in 2016 and was a target for clubs in the summer.

It has been an otherwise disappointing season for Everton, who are below today’s opponents Burnley and have taken only one point from two matches in the Europa League.
