JAMES Milner has reportedly been offered a contract extension at Liverpool – but Mohamed Salah's future remains up in the air.
The Anfield club is making moves ahead of the end of the season but is yet to secure their Egyptian star to a new deal.
But news of Milner potentially staying for another year will delight Reds fans, with the 36-year-old producing another dogged performance in the weekend's win over Newcastle.
The Telegraph reports manager Jurgen Klopp wanted to extend his deal even before the win at St James' Park.
They report that "it seems certain" Milner will sign the deal, which would see him enter his eighth year at the club.
In recent years Milner has played more of a bit-part role as Liverpool recruited bigger names to fill gaps in their midfield.

But he remains an important squad player, with the former England international able to play in many positions.
The future of his teammate Mo Salah is less certain for now.
The 29-year-old will have just one year left on his deal at the end of this season, and has been in a stand-off with the club over a new contract.
The Telegraph report he has "not given any indication yet" that he wants to extend his contract.

They add that these factors may have left the club in "forced to sell territory" this summer as he will be able to leave for nothing the year after.
The report shows a change of tone from previous weeks, with Salah appearing more willing to extend his stay at Liverpool and Egypt's sports minister also signaling the same.
The forward has been linked with moves to PSG and Barcelona in recent months.
Salah remains Liverpool's jewel in the crown, and has been a key factor in their Premier League and Champions League wins of recent years.
