Gerrard's current deal expires this summer and the club captain is currently mulling over a new deal.
The 34-year-old inspired the Reds to a 3-1 win over Leicester on Tuesday night, already his 19th appearance of the season.

And Henderson believes the life-long Liverpool man still has something to give Brendan Rodgers' side.
"He's a massive player for us and a great leader," Henderson said.
"We need to keep him for as long as we can. I hope he stays for many years to come.
"I thought Steven was outstanding for us. It was a real captain's performance from him.
"He worked so hard for the team and he got his rewards with his goal."
