Landon Donovan wants to stay at Goodison Park just a little bit longer, and is hopeful Everton can work something out with LA Galaxy to keep him here.
The American forward has just one game left on his current loan deal, but would like to stay at Everton until midway through next month, if it can be arranged.
He said, "It’s been really great and I can’t imagine many players in the world, let alone Americans, can say they have played against and beaten Chelsea and Manchester United in the space of 10 days. That has to be the highlight. It’s certainly improved me as a player. I’ve learned a lot technically and tactically.
"But I haven’t given up hope of staying here at Everton a little longer. I think we will know more during this week. Both clubs know how I feel, which is that I would like to stay.
"I’d have to go back April 15 at the latest, and if that can be worked out, great. If not, then I’m still very grateful for the chance I’ve had." Discuss this on our forums
