Duo agree deals
Liverpool, 09:19, July 6, 2009 ,
As Liverpool appear in a fight to keep their star men, two of their youngsters Jay Spearing and Stephen Darby have signed new deals.
Talks have been on-going with the duo for the past few months as their current deals have just a year to run, but both now have agreed new three year contracts to stay at Anfield.
Spearing appeared against Real Madrid in the Champions League last season and has impressed in the middle, whilst defender Darby is also very highly-rated at the club and appeared three times for the first team last season.
Both are expected to sign their new deals when the players return to pre-season training.
