Andre Wisdom commits to Liverpool by signing long-term contract

Liverpool announce that defender Andre Wisdom has put pen to paper on a new long-term contract at Anfield.

Liverpool defender Andre Wisdom has committed his future to the Merseyside club by signing a new long-term contract.

The 19-year-old was recently tipped to put pen to paper on a new deal after emerging as a first-team regular in manager Brendan Rodgers's side this season.

"It's a great honour to sign a new contract at the club and I'm very happy," Wisdom told the club's official website. "It was an easy decision to make.

"As soon as they offered it to me, I grabbed the opportunity with both hands because it's a great club and I just want to continue to play for Liverpool.

"I am happy with the progress I've made so far and hopefully I can progress more in the second half of the season and continue to keep playing."

Managing director Ian Ayre added: "It's fantastic news. It's another great example of a player committing to the club and what we're trying to achieve under Brendan.

"He's a great young player, shown a fantastic improvement, broken into the first team and made a huge contribution, and rightly so, we've provided him with a new contract and a long term one."

Wisdom's commitment comes just weeks after 18-year-old winger Raheem Sterling signed a new contract at Anfield.
