    The worst secret in football is finally official

    The worst secret in football is finally official – Leighton Baines has signed a new Everton contract

    The worst kept secret in football has finally been made official ahead of tomorrows Merseyside Derby with the announcement that star left-back Leighton Baines has signed a new long term contract with the club.

    Rumours have been circulating for the last 2 weeks that Baines had signed the contract and Roberto Martinez has now confirmed that the England international has penned a new 4 year contract at the club ending speculation about a move to Manchester United who are managed by former Everton manager David Moyes.

    “It would be an understatement to say we are delighted to secure the best footballing years of Leighton Baines at our club,” manager Roberto Martinez told evertonfc.com.

    “It’s a massive boost and exciting for the future. Leighton has just turned 29 and brings the right measure of maturity and football knowledge in a very specialised position on the pitch, bringing an infectious and positive influence to the rest of the squad.

    “I know that every fan will be delighted with the news and we all share that excitement looking at what’s left of this campaign and beyond. With the crucial games we have ahead, it is going to be vitally important to have Leighton’s experience there to help us fight for our aims.”

    Everton fans will be delighted to have secured the long term future of their best player and hope that the news will boost the team ahead of the Merseyside Derby and give them the lift needed to help achieve a top 4 finish.
