In a stunning transfer development, Everton FC goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has officially finalized a landmark four-year contract with Manchester United, ending his eight-year spell at Goodison Park.

Pickford, 31, who has been Everton’s first-choice goalkeeper since 2017 and a regular for the England national team, becomes Manchester United’s latest high-profile signing in a bid to strengthen their squad between the posts. Sources indicate that the deal was completed after months of negotiations, marking one of the most significant Premier League goalkeeper transfers in recent years.

“I’m thrilled to join Manchester United and can’t wait to contribute to the team’s success,” Pickford said in a statement released by the club. “Everton will always hold a special place in my heart, but this is a new chapter I am very excited about.”

Manchester United manager expressed optimism about the signing, highlighting Pickford’s experience at both club and international level as a key asset for the Red Devils’ ambitions in domestic and European competitions.

Everton now faces the challenge of identifying a long-term replacement for Pickford, who leaves behind a legacy as one of the club’s most reliable and decorated goalkeepers.

The deal is officially effective immediately, with Pickford expected to integrate into the Manchester United squad ahead of the remainder of the 2025/26 Premier League season.
