Joe Gomez might be out injured with a lower leg fracture, but the Liverpool defender put pen to paper and extended his stay at Anfield.
The 21-year-old has partnered Virgil van Dijk in the majority of our Premier League games this season and has been excellent with the Dutch defender.
The Reds have one of the meanest defences in Europe, and the pair of Van Dijk and Gomez were getting better with each game under their belts.
Hopefully, the Englishman comes back stronger and better from the injury, and his partner in the heart of the defence was sure to message the 21-year-old.

Van Dijk and Gomez also took part in a fun Q+A session a couple of weeks ago, and there is a real bond between the two.
This brotherly love is certainly something the Liverpool fans loved, and here are some of their reactions to Van Dijk’s tweet.
are you tweeting during the press conference?

the two of you compliment each other so much on the pitch, there’s no doubt you’ll form the best defense the league has ever seen.
