Gomez wants to stay part of Liverpool's winning formula

Joe Gomez insists Liverpool have the formula to keep winning trophies.

The Reds lifted the Champions League last season and are on the verge of winning the Premier League title.

And young defender Gomez insists he wants to be part of the club's future.

He told the club's website: "As a collective, we've got so many experienced players here and guys who have played for massive clubs and won things at different places. I think it is that mix of youth and experience that we've got in the team that probably makes such a good blend at the minute.

"People like Trent [Alexander-Arnold], that really embody the city and what it means to be a Liverpool player, then the likes of Hendo [Jordan Henderson], that is a leader who has been here for so many years.

"Having so many individuals within the team that embrace playing for the club and really enjoy what it means to be a Liverpool player is hopefully what is going to create the formula for winning many more trophies and having more success."

On his time with the Reds, Gomez added: "It's had its ups and downs and some periods have gone quicker than others, but I am so grateful to be at this club and to be coming up to my fifth year is something I definitely appreciate.

"Hopefully it is just the start of the journey; five years is a pretty decent length of time, but I hope it is just sort of the opening chapters of what can be many more years here.

"It has definitely been special times and I have definitely grown a lot here. I've done most of my growing up as an adult, coming here at 18. I've learned so much about the club and about the city. It's been a pleasure."
