The 32-year-old will be offered a new deal when the club’s ownership saga is resolved, according to Hodgson.
Carragher’s current contract is set to expire at the end of the season.
“I’m sure it [a contract extension] will be a priority,” said Hodgsony.
“Quite frankly so much has happened in the last five weeks, the hours I’ve spent at the club are enormous, that we haven’t actually got round to discussing contracts with players.
“I now know that Carragher has got one year left. That’s the only contract of a player that I know about. If you asked me how many years the others have got, I haven’t got a clue.”
