Everton goalkeeper Iain Turner has signed a three-year contract extension with the club.
The 21-year-old, whose previous deal had been due to expire next summer, wants to break into the first team, for whom he has yet to appear.

"It is good to be offered a new contract by any club," Turner told the club's website. "But when it is a club the size of Everton it is great.

"Hopefully I can come into the first team and do a job."

The Scotland Under-21 goalkeper, who has been on loan at Chester and Doncaster, knows he faces strong competition at Everton, with Richard Wright and John Ruddy also trying to dislodge current number one Nigel Martyn.

"We now have four keepers at the club but you need that level of competition to push you that little bit further," added Turner.

"It is going to be interesting this season. "Of course you set personal goals. There is no point playing football if you don't set targets - it is the same in life.

"My ambition is to be Everton and Scotland's number one. But with keepers it is about trying to get your chance.

"The two ahead of me will be tough to get ahead of but if I get a chance I will try to take it."
