Kiernan has made more than 70 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions so far.

After opting to extend her contract with The Reds, Kiernan said “It feels amazing and I’m really excited to get going again.

“[My family are] delighted, honestly. It’s like a second home for them as well as me and they love it over here. I could actually see myself, after I finish my career, in Liverpool. I feel like they’re really enjoying coming over to see me.

“[The fans] have been unbelievable – really supportive throughout injuries, really supportive by sticking with us and I feel like they’ve been there for the good times and the bad. Hopefully, we’ll be able to celebrate with them a lot this year.”

Further Liverpool squad news will be announced in due course.
