Manager Roberto Martinez is planning signings for next season, but will have to weigh up whether to commit that much to the former England winger.

Lennon, whose contract at Spurs expires in 2016, has already expressed a desire to remain at Goodison Park.

"I'm enjoying my time here and I have done since the moment I arrived," he said. "Long may it continue."
