Liverpool star hoping for new deal

The 31-year-old signed a new long-term contract with the club on Thursday.

“I’m hoping to play beyond the length of this contract,” he told the Liverpool Echo. “I’m feeling fit and strong and I want to play for as long as I can.

“I don’t want to put any time frame on it. As long as I feel good and I’m performing at the top level I’ll keep going.

“Hopefully over the next few years I’ll earn another contract with my performances.

“But even if Liverpool don’t offer me another contract after this one I don’t think I could play for anyone else. I’ve been at this club since I was eight and I’m living the dream.”
