Henderson pens new Liverpool deal until 2023

Jordan Henderson has signed a new five-year contract with Liverpool.

Henderson began his third year as Reds captain earlier this season and has been at the club since a £16 million move from Sunderland in summer 2011.

The midfielder’s new deal, confirmed on Monday, will tie his future to Anfield until the summer of 2023 as the club’s longest-serving current player.

“I’m obviously very happy, over the moon to sign a new contract for a long period of time hopefully. I’m delighted.

“It doesn’t seem like too long ago when I signed my first one; it feels like yesterday really but a lot has happened since then.

“I feel as though it has been a progressive journey for me personally throughout my time here, one that I’ve enjoyed so much.

“For me, there is no other place in the world that I’d rather play football.

“I just want to be here for as long as I can really and hopefully beyond my contract I can stay for as long as I can.

“I’m so privileged to be part of this club for so long and hopefully for even longer.”
