Lescott to be rewarded with new Everton deal

Everton are ready to reward Joleon Lescott with a new contract following his impressive form since a £5million move from Wolves last year.

Everton defender Joleon Lescott's recent club form has seen him pick up two England caps

Manager David Moyes is keen to secure the 25-year-old defender on a five-year deal, after agreeing a similar deal with striker Andrew Johnson last week.

Lescott is in the England squad to face Austria on Friday and Croatia next week.
