Gerrard on brink of new deal

Steven Gerrard has told Liverpool’s chiefs: “It’s in your own hands now” as he prepares to commit the rest of his career to Anfield.

The Liverpool skipper flew out with his team-mates to La Manga for a five-day training camp ahead of the Champions League final, admitting he was ready and willing to sign a new deal once it has been cleared by the club.
