Agger: I’m happy at Liverpool

Liverpool defender Daniel Agger says he is happy at Anfield and would be happy to discuss a new contract at the club.

The 27 year old Denmark captain was one of the Reds’ standout performers last season, forging a successful partnership with Martin Skrtel.

“It’s no secret that I’m happy to be in Liverpool,” he told Danish newspaper sporten.dk. “Otherwise, I would not have been there for six years.

“I have not discussed a new contract, but if they come with an offer I will surely sit down and talk with them.

“It’s not something that is urgent, for I have contract until 2014, but if they ask I will listen.”

Agger’s style of play is in accord with new boss Brendan Rodgers’ philosophy and the Dane is expected to prosper under the Northern Irishman’s reign.

“I am looking forward to meeting the new coach,” he said. “I’ve seen what he has done at Swansea, and it has been impressive.”
