Tyler Morton has admitted he's surprise at signing a new long-term contract at Anfield
On Wednesday afternoon, the 20-year-old Wallasey-born midfielder signed a new contract with the Reds, who he has been associated with since the age of 7, despite spending the 2022/23 season at Ewood Park under the leadership of former AC Milan forward and current manager Jon Dahl Tomasson.
"I'm delighted to have signed a new contract with the club," Morton said.
"I'm absolutely buzzing. The little dream is coming true, so I couldn't be happier.
"I've known for a little while and it's been ongoing, and I couldn't wait to get it over the line because this is the place I want to be and this is the club I want to be at. I'm absolutely buzzing and I can't wait for the future."
"I've obviously worked hard in recent years to get this contract, but you can never expect anything and you've got to expect the unexpected.
"Now that it's come, it's a big weight off my shoulders and now I can enjoy my footy and continue doing what I love doing – playing. I'm absolutely buzzing, as I said, and I can't wait for the future."
