Gylfi Sigurdsson could be in line for a new deal at Everton after impressive performances whilst deputising for James Rodriguez

Everton are considering a new contract for midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson.

The £40m signing from Swansea City looked to be in his way out following the arrival and form of James Rodríguez but has played his way back into Carlo Ancelotti's plans at Goodison.

Sigurdsson has impressed in the playmaker role whilst the Colombian star has been injured, and started the Toffees 1-0 defeat to West Ham on New Year's Day.
