Everton captain Seamus Coleman plans to “keep going as long as possible” after signing a one-year contract extension. In that time he has made 350 appearances for the club, having been made captain in 2019. “I’m very happy – everyone around the football club and I’m sure all the fans know how much this club has meant to me from day one,” Coleman told evertontv. Coleman believes he has an important role to play behind the scenes as Benitez settles in. “My job in the process is to be sure we are doing all the right things behind the scenes, on the training pitch, the best way possible.”
