Brazil international midfielder Philippe Coutinho has extended his contract with Liverpool, the Premier League side said on its website today.
Although no official details of his new contract were revealed, media reports said the 24-year-old signed a five-and-a-half year extension that will keep him at Liverpool until 2022 and make him the club's highest-paid player.
Coutinho has scored 34 goals in 163 appearances since he joined the Merseyside club from Inter Milan in January 2013 and has played a pivotal role in Liverpool's solid first half of the season.
Liverpool is fourth in the Premier League standings after 21 games, 10 points behind leaders Chelsea, who they will face at Anfield next Tuesday.
