Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina believes he could stay at the club for another five years.

The Spain international was linked with a move away from Merseyside during the summer, with Manchester United and Atletico Madrid both thought to be interested in signing the 29-year-old.

Reina later confirmed he was happy at the club, and after moving to Liverpool in 2005 now believes he can complete a decade at Anfield.

"The intention is to continue here," he told The People.

"When I came here I never thought I would stay for seven years.

"Now the plan is to make it 10 or 12. Everyone is different but I have been lucky that my wife is very happy here and my children as well.

"I’m a Scouser now. The affection of the people here is tremendous and I really appreciate it."
