Everton FC keen to tie Victor Anichebe to new deal and avoid repeat of Dan Gosling exit

Victor Anichebe 300EVERTON are determined to settle Victor Anichebe's future - and avoid a repeat of the transfer row which saw Dan Gosling join Newcastle United.The 22-year-old forward is entering the final six months of his current contract, and as yet no new deal has been signed.Anichebe is understood to have several clubs, both in the Premier League and abroad, monitoring his situation, having only narrowly missed out on Nigeria's World Cup squad this summer.Now David Moyes is set to tie down the attacker to a new long-term deal, in a bid to avoid losing him for nothing like Gosling. Anichebe, who has come through the ranks at Goodison, can leave for nothing at the end of the season if a new deal cannot be agreed.Everton would be due a sizeable compensation fee if Anichebe moved to another English side, but if he was to go abroad he would be available for a cut-price fee.That is understood to have alerted several foreign clubs, aware they could be able to seize a bargain.Meanwhile, Marouane Fellaini has vowed to learn from the red card against Bolton Wanderers which led him to miss Everton's last three games.
