New Reds deal for keeper Reina

Jose Reina has signed a new Liverpool contract that will keep him at the club until 2012.

The Spanish international, 25, has penned a five-year deal, hot on the heels of new deals signed on Monday by Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher.

"I am very happy with this contract," said Reina. "It was always my wish to sign a new deal because this is a good club which is looking forward to a very ambitious and attractive project.

"The details of the contract were very straightforward. Rick Parry (chief executive) and the American owners (Tom Hicks and George Gillett) made everything easy and in the end it was a good solution for the club and a good solution for me.

"I spoke with Rafa (Benitez) and his thoughts for the future really excited me. He has ambitions for the team which I want to be part of and I'm sure the other players feel the same.

"The idea now for all of us is to keep winning matches and to challenge for titles. That's what we'll be looking for from the start of next season.

"Our fans deserve the league title and that's what we'll be looking for. Seventeen years without winning it is far too long for this club and that's why our biggest target next year has to be the Premiership."
