      The Nigerian midfielder, 26, is now a key player under Frank Lampard and ready to pen a fresh three-and-a-half-year agreement.

      “It’s been a really, really tough couple of months, we’ve had to do something that no team or manager or coaching staff has had to do before with the amount of players that have come in.
      “Every time we’ve had a tough moment, we’ve responded with a performance or result so that’s reassuring. Days like today help belief grow and we’ve got to build on that.” More

      They are planning to have the ground ready for the beginning of the 2024/25 campaign.
      It is due to hold up to 53,000 supporters – an increase of over 13,000 from Goodison Park.
      In anticipation of the big opening in two years time, Premier League side Everton have been seeking naming rights for the stadium.
      However, they have received somewhat of a surprise offer from America.

      Stripchat is an international adult website and social network that features free live-streamed webcam performances – including nudity and sexual activity.
      And they want to get onboard with the Blues.
      In an email to Prolific North, Stripchat said: “With news that Everton is seeking naming rights for its new $566million stadium, Stripchat is officially extending a 10-year, $20 million-per-year offer to have the stadium named the Stripchat Sustainability Stadium.”
      Stripchat’s VP of New Media, Max Bennett, then added: “Stripchat has officially extended our offer to Everton to be the official naming partner for the club’s new stadium.

      “If our bid were to be accepted, we would make a concerted effort to make ‘Stripchat Sustainability Stadium’ the most progressive, responsible, and sustainable stadium in the world.”
      Everton confirmed in September that they were partnering with US-based firm Elevate Sports Ventures to help them bring in a naming rights partner.
      While they consider the proposal from Stripchat, the Toffees still have plenty of time to receive offers from elsewhere after the club refused to put a timescale on the search.
      However, Everton have also stated that no official approach from Stripchat has been received.

      Stripchat have claimed that part of the proposal would be to ensure the ground limits carbon output while it would also be used to host philanthropic events of importance that the company holds dear to its heart.
      These would include sexual health events during “No Nut November” as well as support events for veterans during June for PTSD Awareness Month. More
