Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is set to receive an extension to his Liverpool contract.
The midfielder made a long-awaited return to action in the Reds’ 5-0 demolition of Huddersfield Town last Friday following a 367-day spell on the sidelines.
Oxlade-Chamberlain’s existing deal is set to expire in summer 2022 but Anfield chiefs have offered an additional 12-months as a show of faith in the player.
Jurgen Klopp is understood to hold the 25-year-old in high esteem and is preparing to include him in the squad that will fly out to Barcelona on Tuesday.
Liverpool are hopeful of including Roberto Firmino in their 25-man squad for that Champions League semi-final after he missed the win over the Terriers.
Klopp admitted after the game that the muscle tear could rule the Brazilian out of the trip to the Nou Camp but described the overall injury situation as ‘positive’.
