Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard could have priced himself out of a potential move to MLS outfit Colorado Rapids by demanding a lucrative four-year deal worth in excess of £14 million, according to the Sun.

The 36-year-old has lost his place as Roberto Martinez's number one stopper to Joel Robles in recent weeks, and has not featured in any of the club's last six matches in all competitions.

The USA 'keeper has been heavily rumoured to be looking to move back to his homeland at the end of the season with the player reportedly believing that his time as a first choice in England is up.

However, the Sun reports that Howard has shocked Colorado Rapids by asking for a long-term deal which would take him beyond his 40th birthday and see him earning an annual salary of around £3.5 million for four years.


Howard is thought to be looking to earn the roughly the same as he currently does on his wage of around £70,000 per week at Goodison Park.
what a joke!

I can accept a player being utter crap, we've seen plenty of them. But they never came out with some of the guff this man has. Telling everyone how great he is and how he knows better than we do and how he thinks he's playing fine. Thats what has made me hate the fella.
 
I don't hate him as he's done well for us but the last year has left a bitter taste with many.

While the fault also lies with RM for keeping him in the side, Howard must take an equal amount of blame for being tosh when called upon.

Don't blame him really because we'd all be doing the same in his position. He knows he would be massive asset to the brand of any MLS side and isn't going to commit himself to a contract for a new team this late into his career and throw his long set-in-stone retirement plans in the bin unless they make it worth his while.

From Howard's perspective he doesn't have to move, going forward he can simply sit on his arse here collecting his massive wages until his contract runs out where upon Martinez (if he's still manager by then) will probably offer him some other position at the club if he wants it. His standing in the States won't be harmed if he never goes back to play in MLS, over there he will always be viewed one of their best ever.

He was in better form and retired!

Some idiot giving an over the hill keeper a three year deal at the age of 36 years old TBF to Timmy he is not the other oldies in the team to get lucrative contracts at an old age or when known to be injury prone - that's EFC for you!
you know who they are don't make the bench or just sit on it or make the odd 20 min cameo performance!
or one goes carp fishing!
For a club who is suposed to be skint they don't do badly other clubs do the same though TBF!
