A new deal to keep him at the club is expected to be thrashed out at the end of the season, with Liverpool keen on tying him down on a longer deal to keep him away from clubs who are reportedly keen on making as a swoop for the talented forward.
His representatives are expected to decide on his future in the summer, and any extension would have to carry a caveat of a spot in the first team pre season training for him to stake a claim in the first team provided he fulfils the work permit requirements.
