Liverpool chairman Tom Werner pays tribute to "extraordinary" Jamie Carragher, who will make his final appearance for Liverpool before he retires this weekend.

Liverpool chairman Tom Werner has paid tribute to "remarkable" defender Jamie Carragher, who will play his last game for the club this weekend.

The former England international will make his 737th and final appearance for the Reds against Queens Park Rangers at Anfield on Sunday.

"To spend 16 years in the first team at Liverpool is testament to Jamie's professionalism," Werner told the Liverpool Echo. "He really is an extraordinary person and a man of remarkable integrity. His love for the club is such that he has always put Liverpool first.

"In moments of adversity he's been there, lifting players around him. He gives everything and suffers for the team. It's the character of the man which I've found so impressive. He shows that enormous heart off the field as well as on it."

The 35-year-old made his debut for the Merseyside club in 1997.
