Raheem Sterling is close to agreeing a new long-term contract at Liverpool.
The forward has been the subject of close attention from Real Madrid.
But it seems that manager Brendan Rodgers is set to tie the striker down with a new deal.
The new deal is thought to be a five-year contract which would put Sterling in the upper echelons of earners at the club.
He has six goals so far this season, and the club are hoping to become more active in the January transfer window once this deal is completed.
Sterling signed for the Reds in 2010 from Queens’ Park Rangers for £600,000.
He last month won the 2014 Golden Boy award, an award that is given by sports journalists to a young football player playing in Europe perceived to have been the most impressive during a season.
