Hitzlsperger extends Everton stay until end of season

Everton boss David Moyes has confirmed German midfielder Thomas Hitzlsperger will stay at Goodison Park until the summer.



Hitzlsperger, having been without a club since leaving Wolfsburg last summer, signed a short-term contract with the Toffees in October that saw him through to this month.



The 30-year-old former Aston Villa and West Ham player has made seven appearances for the Everton and, when asked about Hitzlsperger's future this afternoon, Moyes said: 'We have decided to keep him on. Thomas is going to stay until the end of the season.'
