Liverpool are reportedly preparing to offer young defender Joe Gomez a new five-year contract.
Gomez, 19, joined the Reds from Charlton Athletic in the summer of 2015, but has only just returned to fitness after missing more than a year with a cruciate knee ligament injury.
According to The Mirror, Jurgen Klopp is a firm admirer of the versatile defender and talks are at an advanced stage as the Premier League outfit look to tie the teenager to an improved long-term deal.
Gomez, who has played the majority of his football for Liverpool at full-back, has started his club's last two FA Cup matches and is expected to feature against Wolverhampton Wanderers this weekend.
The defender has three England Under-21 appearances to his name.
