Liverpool playmaker Philippe Coutinho has signed a new contract at Anfield.
The 22-year-old, who arrived on Merseyside from Inter Milan two years ago, is believed to have agreed to terms until the summer of 2020.
"I'm really happy. It's a dream come true playing for this great club and being part of this squad," he told the club's official website.
"Today I've committed my future to the club and for this I'm feeling very pleased. This club is great and the fans have always supported me, so I've been eager to sign this new deal since conversations started. Today is a very happy day."
Manager Brendan Rodgers added: "I'm delighted that Philippe has committed his long-term future to us. He is clearly going to be a big part of our story in the years to come.
"The most exciting thing isn't just how good he is now, it's the further improvement he can make in his game. In terms of potential, he can still become even better."
To date, Coutinho has scored 10 goals during his 81 appearances for the Reds.
