Seamus Coleman confirms Everton exit as he ponders retirement

  • Seamus Coleman is set to depart Everton this summer, concluding a remarkable 17-year career at the club where he established himself as one of their modern-day greats.
  • The 38-year-old right-back, who has captained Everton since 2019, holds the club record for the most Premier League appearances, with a total of 372.
  • Coleman is widely recognised as one of the Premier League's greatest bargains, having been signed from Sligo Rovers in 2009 for an initial fee of just £60,000.
  • His future plans are currently undecided, as he weighs up whether to continue his playing career elsewhere or accept an offer to join Everton's coaching staff.
  • Despite an injury-hit season limiting him to only three top-flight appearances, Coleman expressed deep gratitude to the fans, managers, and teammates, affirming his enduring love for the club.
