Jordan Henderson has put pen to paper on a new five-year Liverpool contract reportedly worth £100,000 a week.
The 24-year-old has become a key player for the Reds over the last two seasons and is expected to be awarded the captaincy when Steven Gerrard leaves for LA Galaxy.
“I’m over the moon that it’s finally done,” Henderson told the club’s official website.
“It’s brilliant news for me to commit my future to this football club – I really feel that it’s a good time for us to look forward to the future, with the squad we’ve got, the manager, the size of the club and the fans we’ve got. I really think, over the next few years, we can challenge and start winning trophies.
“That’s the next phase; we’ve improved massively over the last few years, and I think the next phase for us is to start challenging for titles and trophies as well.”
