The 34-year-old says he does not know what to do yet about his future but is keen for the focus to be on the side’s performances, rather than his contract negotiations

Steven Gerrard has refused to elaborate on his contract situation with Liverpool and admits he is undecided over his future.

The 34-year-old’s current deal at Anfield expires at the end of the season, although Brendan Rodgers has confirmed an extension has been offered to the midfielder.

“I’ll decide when I’m ready. There’s nothing to say on the contract at the moment,” Gerrard told BT Sport.

“When there is – the fans have known me long enough – I’ll come out and I’ll say what I need to say.”

After starting on the bench in Saturday’s 1-0 win over Stoke City, Gerrard returned to the side for Wednesday night’s trip to Leicester City and scored the second goal in a 3-1 win which keeps Liverpool five points behind fourth-placed Manchester United.

“I think over the last three performances we’ve been superb and we need to keep trying to improve on that,” said the midfielder.

“The reason I don’t want to answer your questions on my contract is because it’s not about me, it’s about the performance and a great three points, and that’s what the headline should be.”
