JAMIE CARRAGHER is set for talks with Brendan Rodgers over delaying his retirement.
The Liverpool stalwart wants to hang up his boots at the end of the season and has been tipped for a future as a coach or manager.
Anfield managing director Ian Ayre has also suggested the former England star, 35, would be offered a role at the club.
But boss Rodgers hopes the defender will continue to play beyond his contract expiring.
He said: “Carra’s been fantastic and I do believe he could play next season. He and I communicate a lot and he’s obviously got something in his mind.
“We will sit down between now and the end of the season anyway and we’ll see where it goes. If he does go, I will certainly miss him because he’s been brilliant for me.
“He’s shown great respect and really helped me and the other guys.
“The thing for now is to keep performing the way he is until the end of the season and between then and now he and we will chat.
“This guy’s incredible. I want to put that on record.”
