Agger Close To New Deal
Quote:
Rafael Benitez today confirmed Daniel Agger is close to agreeing a new contract at Anfield.
The Danish defender's future has been the subject of speculation for many months, but a deal is now close which will ensure the 24-year-old commits his future to the Reds.
"It is very close," confirmed Benitez today. "We are just waiting on the small details but it is nearly done. We have to wait a little bit longer but we are very close.
"He is very happy here and I have always supported him. Hopefully it will be done."
Benitez also brushed off speculation in this morning's newspapers linking Javier Mascherano with a move away from the club.
"I was talking with Javier earlier and everything is okay," he added.
"He is really pleased here because he knows the fans love him. He can't avoid big clubs asking about him because he is a top class player, but he is very happy here."
Meanwhile, Steven Gerrard has overcome a groin strain and will be available for this weekend's clash with Newcastle United at Anfield.
