Apr 23, 2015 10:49 AM

Jordan Henderson has agreed to sign a long-term contract with Liverpool.

Sources had said this week that Henderson, 24, was set to sign a new five-year deal worth £100,000 a week.

Henderson's deal was set to expire after next season.

Henderson told Liverpool's official website: "I'm over the moon that it's finally done.

"There has been talk about it for a while now. It's brilliant news for me to commit my future to this football club -- I really feel that it's a good time for us to look forward to the future, with the squad we've got, the manager, the size of the club and the fans we've got. I really think, over the next few years, we can challenge and start winning trophies.

"That's the next phase. We've improved massively over the last few years, and I think the next phase for us is to start challenging for titles and trophies as well."
