Out of form striker Nikica Jelavic will not be going anywhere according to Everton manager David Moyes.
Jelavic has netted just one goal in his past 18 Barclays Premier League games for the Toffees but Moyes is confident the Croatia international has the strength of character to bounce back.
“His effort has never been in question and we’d want him here next year,” Moyes said.
“It’s been a difficult season – maybe a bit of second-season syndrome.
“He’s found it a little harder to get the goals and the opportunities.
“We kept trying to play him to give him the chance to score but in the end we had to take him out. As it is, Victor Anichebe has come to light in the last month or so which has given us a wee bit of something else.”
Moyes added: “His confidence has taken a bit of a knock. If you’ve not scored and not played as well that’s natural.
“He’s a good lad and he’s the first one to accept he’s not doing well enough.
“When you work with boys like that it makes it a lot easier because they know they have got to get better.”
