Liverpool midfielder Ryan Gravenberch signs new contract until 2032
Ryan Gravenberch has signed a new long-term contract with Liverpool that will keep the midfielder at Anfield until 2032.
The Netherlands international was instrumental in Arne Slot’s debut campaign, helping the Reds secure the Premier League title last season.
He has remained a permanent fixture in the side this term, starting all but two of the club’s league matches.
Gravenberch commits future to Anfield
Speaking to the club’s official website, the 23-year-old expressed his delight at committing his future to the Merseyside club.
“I feel really, really good,” Gravenberch said.
“I was really proud to extend my contract at such a big club. So, I’m really happy that I can stay for many more years.”
The former Ajax and Bayern Munich playmaker admitted the decision was straightforward due to the trust shown by Slot.
“I felt directly the trust from the club, also from the manager. The decision for me was easy to make,” he added.
“My family is also happy here. We are now here almost three years, so I know everything already.”
Focus on future silverware
While Liverpool’s hopes of retaining their Premier League crown have faded this season, the midfielder remains focused on finishing the campaign strongly.
“For the short term, [my aim is to] end the season as good as possible,” Gravenberch explained.
“And for the long term: win many more trophies with Liverpool.”
The Dutchman also highlighted his connection with the Anfield faithful as a key factor in his development.
“I have a really nice relationship with [the fans],” he said.
“I’m really grateful for the supporters because without them we would not be where we are now. In the future, we want to give them many more [trophies], so hopefully we can get that done.”
