Wallace signs new Everton deal

Everton have today rewarded youngster James Wallace with a new contract. The attacking midfielder, who made his only senior appearance in the 1-1 Europa League tie with Sigma Olomouc in August 2009, has committed to the club for another season.

He spent three months at the end of last season on loan at Stockport County, but his impressive performances at Edgeley Park were not enough as the Hatters were relegated from the football league.

The 19-year-old was born in Liverpool but represented Ireland up to U-16 level, when it was found out that he was in fact ineligible to represent the Irish. Since, he has played for England U-19s.

On signing the contract, he told Everton's official website "I am delighted to sign a new deal at the club. I am made up it is sorted and I am just looking forward to pre-season."
