Liverpool have penned Herbie Kane to a new contract and extended his loan spell with Doncaster Rovers.

The 20-year-old midfielder has starred for League One side Rovers this season, scoring six goals from 26 appearances.

"It is massive, coming from a massive club like Liverpool, so I'm happy," Kane said after signing the new deal.

"I was excited to get it done. It took a lot of hard work to get this, but thankfully it is done. Hopefully I can carry on working hard and get to where I want to be."

On his spell with Donny, he added: "I've enjoyed every minute of it, to be honest, I'm just trying to do as well as I can for myself and help the team, but also trying to improve.

"Hopefully people at Liverpool notice that I'm doing well, and hopefully when I come back to Liverpool it will impact it.

"My aim is to come back in the summer and try to make a footprint. I'm hoping I come back in the summer and impress the manager in pre-season."
