"I'm really pleased that I'll be extending my stay at Liverpool and I can't wait to sign the contract once we're back home. I'm in my thirties now and there's no doubt in my mind whatsoever that this is where I want to play for the rest of my career," said the right-back.
"I was never worried about not being offered a new deal to be honest. We initially spoke about it towards the end of last season but there's been a lot going on at the club in recent months and it was never in doubt. The manager assured me that I was in his plans and once talks resumed everything was tied up really quickly.
"I'm not the only player to have agreed a new deal this summer and that's got to be a good sign. It shows there's a lot of stability at the club. Everyone wants to stay and be part of what could be an exciting future. With the new owners coming, the new players we've signed and all the young players around the place there's a lot of expectation."
