Turner extends deal with Everton

Turner, 23, made his first league start of the season for Everton in Saturday's 4-2 home defeat by Manchester United.

"I have signed a two-year extension to my current deal and I'd like to think in four years' time I will be playing week in, week out," said Turner.

"Everton is a very big club, they have offered me this contract and it is my ambition to become number one here."

Turner was at fault for United's first goal on Saturday, but he believes the experience he gained on loan recently at Sheffield Wednesday will stand him in good stead.

"Luckily I was given a chance to go over and play at Wednesday," added Turner. "It is a big club and we had some big games and I thought I did well.

"I had a good experience with Wednesday but it is here that I want to make my mark and I am looking forward to doing that."
