Parry: Deals can wait

Rick Parry has insisted no announcement on the futures of Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher will be made until after Wednesday's UEFA Champions League final with Milan.

The Reds are focusing their efforts on securing a second Champions League title in three seasons in Athens on Wednesday, but media reports suggested they had also been putting finishing touches to deals with their two leading lights.

Gerrard and Carragher have made it clear they intend to extend their commitments with the Anfield giants and it had been claimed deals had been agreed.

Parry refused to deny deals had been agreed, but stressed all off-field matters have been shelved until after Wednesday's clash with Milan.

"Nothing will happen until after the final," stated Parry.
