Steven Pienaar has thrown his future at Everton into more doubt by admitting he is still not close to agreeing a contract extension with the Merseyside club. The South Africa international is wanted by a host of Premier League clubs including Manchester United, Spurs, and derby rivals Liverpool. Pienaar who has only a year remaining on his current deal has not ruled out the possibility of staying at Goodison Park but negotiation have gone slow.
Pienaar said: “I’d say the spirit of the discussions was very good, but we have differing valuations, so my future isn’t clear,”
“Everton may keep me for the last year of my deal. If they decide to sell, and the move is correct for my career, then I’ll consider it.
“Hopefully this hasn’t been my last season, but who knows?”
