Speaking ahead of Liverpool's Champions League clash with Marseille, boss Rafael Benitez has sought to avoid talks regarding his own future.
It's well known that Rafael Benitez is keen to extend his stay at Anfield and reports suggested recently that he was in talks with club supremos, pen in hand and smile on face.
However, there have been suggestions that certain snags have been encountered during the meetings.
Either way, the Spanish boss wasn't giving anything away ahead of Wednesday's Group D clash with Ligue 1 side Marseille.
Asked if his new contract was still going to be sorted by the end of the month, as planned, he squirmed, before saying, "It could be... but I prefer to concentrate on the game."
Skipper Steven Gerrard is expected to return after recovering from a groin problem and training well on Tuesday, but he may not start and is very unlikely to last 90 minutes if he does.
