Dane not giving anything away over contract situation
Liverpool defender Daniel Agger insists Rafa Benitez's decision to stay at the club will have no influence over his talks about a new deal.
Benitez ended months of speculation over his future by signing a new five-year deal at Anfield last week.
The Spaniard also revealed one of his top priorities after inking his new deal is to sort out the contracts of the likes of Agger and Dirk Kuyt.
Agger, who made his return from injury as a substitute against Aston Villa on Sunday, is adamant Benitez's contract renewal will have no bearing over his own future.
"Congratulations to him. He has done it well. But I will not sign with Benitez but with the club. That is something that I have to keep in mind," Agger told Danish news agency
Ritzau.
The Danish international refused to consider whether Benitez's decision to stay was good or bad news for his contract situation.
"I don't want to get involved in that discussion. But he was the one that brought me to the club," added Agger.
