Glen Johnson has been offered a new contract at Liverpool - but still looks certain to quit Anfield.

Right-back Johnson is currently on £120,000-a-week but, having lost his England place after suffering a loss of form and injuries, he is being asked to HALVE his money on a £60K per week, two-year deal.

The 30-year-old is set to be out of contract at the end of the season and looks likely to reject the Reds' reduced salary and move abroad on a lucrative free transfer.

There has been strong interest from Roma in Serie A, after they signed England LEFT back Ashley Cole last summer.

Liverpool are embarking on a series of contract talks as they look to tie down England starlet Raheem Sterling and fend off interest from Real Madrid.

Kop boss Brendan Rodgers has also insisted they want to keep captain Steven Gerrard, who is also out of contract at the end of the season.

Gerrard, 34, has insisted the ball is in Liverpool's court as to whether he stays at Anfield as he wants to be playing regularly.
