Fenway Sports Group president Mike Gordon says the club have made a 'big statement' by extending Jurgen Klopp's contract.

The German was contracted until 2024 but will now stay with the club for an extra two years after penning a new contract on Thursday.

"Jurgen wanting to make our future to be as bright as our present is a big statement," he said. "We cannot rest or consolidate. We have to think at all times about improvement and we are now able to do this in the knowledge that we have retained a manager who not only shares our vision and ambition, he remains determined to deliver on it.

"For these reasons and many more, it is beyond thrilling to know Jurgen Klopp will lead us into this new era.

"Speaking on behalf of my partners John (Henry) and Tom (Werner), as well as myself, Jurgen is the perfect figurehead for the modern Liverpool FC. This is especially true of what he stands for, on and off the pitch. It also applies to the leader he is and the man he is. Because of our extraordinary playing squad, outstanding coaches, world-class football operations team and brilliant club staff, we are blessed with the most valuable resource an organisation could wish for: amazing people."
